For hotels it depends what you want to do - shopping, sightseeing, nightlife. For all these I'd give different answers. Anyway, as a compromise candidate for a cheap hotel, Bangkok City Inn - you can get it for Baht1,000 a night; good location for shopping and public transport. You can go below Baht1,000 but if you go much below that price, the hotels start being guest-houses rather than real hotels/don't have any stars/don't have good access to public transport.

Why are you going to Bangkok?

Why do you think they call it Bangkok?

Heck, you got dollars or euros, mate. What do you think? Get a Rough Guide or Lonely Planet?
I would avoid ANY "cheap" hotels. Bangkok has SO many great things to offer and an AWESOME culture. You will love it!! Do some web research but be careful while you are there. It does have a reputation for being a tourist trap.
NAVY GUY HERE!!!!
I'd say the best thing to do in Bangkok is get on a bus and leave! When I have to spend time in Bangkok it's usually for Embassy stuff so we stay close to the National Stadium , sky train station. I've forgotten the name of the place but ir's on the other dide of the road from the stadium right next to a tiny 7 11. The hotell's nothing special but the food in the resturant is cheep and very good.

Enjoy your stay,
What made you pick Thailand, if you didn't know what there is to do here. they got women, temples, women, shoppingl, women, great cheap food, women, beaches, and did i mention women?
