I've seen IC Yokohama as low as 29k, but haven't stayed there recently.

We were aiming at Izu but it was booked for the dates we had.

Tokyo area has a bunch of IC, so you are right there are some other options, dates depending. Yokohama IC is also in range usually, as you said, but was not for our NY's eve date. The IC pier 8 seems to be always high.
