I'll be in Toulouse this coming Sunday and looking for an inexpensive place to spend the night?

There has been a report that the Halte des Pélerins at Toulouse was no longer available. So, try it, but be prepared to consider alternatives.
The webpage of “Via Tolosana” includes a list of lodgements, with the note that Toulouse proper is “difficult”.
There is a gite in Bazièges, 23 km before Toulouse ; and in Leguevin, 20 km after the beautiful “pink city”.
As it is usual in France, you need to call before arriving.
There is a “benevole” or volunteer from the local “jacquaire” association in the Saint Sernin basilica, from April 1 to October 31th, 15h00 to 18h00, welcoming pilgrims.
Buen camino!

Felipe may be correct so here are the rest straight from MMD 2015-2015 Maison diocesaine du Christ-Roi at 28 rue de l'Aude; youth hostel Accueil pelerins au Foyer des Jeunes Travailleurs (metro Jolimont so probably not on the Chemin) at 2 avenue Yves Brunot; and another youth hostel Accueil pelerins au Foyer des Jeunes Travailleurs 20 Grande rue Nazareth in the middle of town. All require a credencial There is also a one star hotel listed Hotel Beausejour, at 4 rue Caffarelli, another 2 star Hotel Ours Blanc Victor Hugo at 25 place Victor Hugo Bon Marche Bon Camino!

I did not find a gite in June, 2013. There are many bargain hotels. I found mine using booking.com.

You are posting in the Le Puy Route section, so I am guessing you are not walking from Toulouse. If you are, you need a guide. The markings are poor and the route complex leaving the city!
