Cheap hotels/motels in Somerville/Cambridge?

[journeystar.livejournal.com]

My parents are going to try and come visit me on the 16th-18th of this month, however it seems all hotels are over $100 a night! Does anyone have any suggestions for cheaper alternatives in the area? Smaller motels? Bed and breakfasts? Someplace that won't be horribly expensive? I appreciate your help :)

The closest hotel to Davis Square is the Hawthorn Suites at Mass. Ave. and Route 16 in Arlington, just across the Cambridge line. You can walk there from Davis in 15 minutes. Even though this is a chain, I can't find their web site.

Their cheapest room is $169/night, a bit cheaper if you're a member of AAA or AARP.
