Cheapest accommodation

I´m returning home to the Netherlands soon after a year travelling around the world. The last 2 weeks I spend at Aruba, Bonaire and Curacao.
I travel cheap and wonder what is the absolute cheapest accommodation on Aruba. I´m talking about just a bed, nothing fancy, no beach, no airco. Just a bed will do. Is this possible and where should I look for this?

P'erle D'or apartments
near tanki flip in aruba

pam pam restaurant is located on site
it is a small apartment complex that caters especially to young dutch travelers.

there are no hostels in aruba for travlers such as you.
too bad, wish there were.

Hotel Victoria offered me a small but clean room with private bathroom and a fan for $30, which is excellent for a budget traveller like myself. With air con it's $50 but I don't need air con since I'm only spending time in the room at night, when it's not hot.
Thanks for the other tips though.
