Hi
Try a travel agent in Australia, alternatively I suspect it will be cheaper to fly to Bangkok in Thailand, it will take about 4 days to get a visa and they have flights to Ho Chi Minh city for about 60 australian dollars. There are lots of cheap hotels in the main tourist district (sorry I can't recall the name) , but you should be able to find it easily its the travellers hangout and tooms can cost as low as $5 (US) a night
Its a great place with fantastic people. Have fun and I hope this helped a little

Housing? Don't worry about it. It's really cheap. And yeah, about $5 a night. I've stayed at a place for 400000VND for a week.
