I'd recommend a DO instance, or one of their competitors. IIRC there's a VPS provider out there that does $3pm VPSes, but I'm not sure the $2pm difference is worth it over going for a provider you know. Alternatively if you really want to minimise your costs right down, migrate from WP to Hugo. You can do so without breaking any links if you pay attention to your permalink structure. Then host on S3, where your bill will, for a low-traffic site, be more like $5 per year. Additional upside to that since you mention having to deal with the hassle every couple of years: HTML isn't going to go out of date any time soon.
