TL;DR
For your first few days in Ho Chi Minh City, check Booking.com and Agoda for last-minute deals: decent rooms can be found from about US$20 in nearly any district. Very basic accommodation may cost US$8–12 per night.
For a place to stay while apartment-hunting, check Booking.com for 1–5-night bookings. Last-minute deals for decent rooms in various Ho Chi Minh City districts can start at around US$20.
Agoda is another useful option for an inexpensive hotel during your first days. Check its short-stay promotions; livable rooms can be available for roughly US$20 per night.
If you only need the cheapest possible base while searching, expect to pay about US$8–12 per night for a very basic room. Budget around US$20 for something more comfortable.
