Close and Cheap Accomodations Near AuOpen (tennis)

Just wondering what the most economical places are
to stay in Melbourne. I'm interested in easy access
of the Tennis tournament (AUOpen). I've been told
that the address: Corner of Batman Avenue and Swan Street
is basically very near the down core and along side
the Yarra River.

Any suggestions?

long link may wrap, then click the hotels button,
anywhere in Melbourne is close to the tennis centre, there are trains trams
and buses that go there

Anything in the eastern half of the CBD is within walking distance. Most
other spots in the CBD are within tram distance - and during the AU Open,
there are lots of extra trams running and ticketholders have free tram
travel to the ground on route 70.

Thanks, Yes, I finally got a hold of a good map.
Ideally I'd like to find an apartment somewhere
in Melbourne that wouldn't be prohibitively expensive.
For now I've booked a hotel for a few days until I
can get my bearings...
