Lodging options in TDP

We will be in TDP for 3 nights November 26-29. Looking for any suggestions for lodging options. We will probably do day hikes as opposed to the whole circuit and are looking for a base.
All I have been able to find so far are what appear to be over-priced hotels with mediocre reviews like Hosteria Pehoe or Las Torres. Are there places outside the park that provide good access to the park?
Appreciate any recommendations

Look here for information on booking the refugios which are the lower cost option to the _ star Hosterias.
