I think you should try

Swedish Guest House
Circunvalacio´n Sur
Phone: 586-5086

It´s very near Jose´ Luis Supermarket (every taxi- or motoconcho-driver in town knows where this market is).
Very friendly people with a family-owned small hotel. I was there one year ago and the first night shared a double-room with one other person and we payed 10 USD each. When he left I had the room for myself and payed 15 USD/ night.

You can also try the hotel next to Cafe Cito, in the middle of the town. I don't remember the name, but I do remember it's very cheap. The rooms are very simple, but clean. If you are there in the weekends, be prepaired for a lot of noice in the night from the disco next door, the moto's, cars and people who find it necessary to have huge and loud discussions in the middle of the night on the street, right under your window ;-).
