I stayed one night at Two Guys guesthouse recently and I'd recommend it for a short stay if you're on a smaller budget. The manager was friendly and helpful when I made the booking and even offered me a small discount on the room price which was nice.
The room was large and had everything I needed (air con, hot water, TV) and most importantly, it was clean. It's fairly basic and the furnishings are old but this is reflected in the price. The location is good if you're planning on spending time in Sunee Plaza.
Two negatives: Firstly, the guys at reception speak pretty limited English so communication wasn't very easy (my Thai language abilities are zero)and secondly, my room was at the front facing onto the street and it was extremely noisy late at night. The noise was coming from a Middle Eastern cafe next door - lots of singing and dancing in the street. Quite difficult to sleep.
If you're staying here I'd recommend asking for a room at the back.
Before Christmas I stayed a couple of nights at le Cafe Royale - the price was more than double the rate at Two Guys - of course the room and facilities were better but I wouldn't really say it was more than twice as nice.
