Maybe a backpacker accommodation or YHA would be cheaper than a hotel. If you're on a pension or senior generally a $2.50 train bus and ferry unlimited ticket for the whole day so cheap to get around.
I have stayed at Sheralee CP at Rockdale, (E on the map within the link above) because it was closest to Sydney Airport, which I wanted at the time. It is however a fair walk to a Railway Station. The park was average with average facilities, forgotten how much I paid per night.
