Affordable and close to the market
Pros:

The hotel doesn't offer any breakfast, but it's just a few minutes walk away from the market where you'll find lots of eateries for reasonable prices. You can get coffee and drinking water in the lobby. Friendly staff.

Cons:

There's a big window in the wall separating the rooms and the corridor, so it doesn't get properly dark at night. Our toilet didn't have a plastic seat.
