What are some budget-friendly hotel options in Bangkok near MRT and BTS?

Ivan *********

@Tom *******

I have stopped here a couple of times . Great location to the river /BTS and Museum . The Food was excellent . Hotel was clean . My only minor point was that the noise does transmit through the walls . I would recommend this Hotel. Please note there is a Further Ibis in the town ( Sorry forgot the name )
