I was a bit wary when arriving, and was definitely taken aback by a requirement to give a deposit in cash, I found the bed, fridge, TV, and shower better than I've seen in other two-star hotels -- and the deposit was kept in a folder, paper-clipped to my initial check-in paperwork. I think it saves them the credit card fees, and that's easy to understand. Staff was friendly, and the room was indeed cheap. Outcomes in the past have been worse. If traveling on a budget, this is a stay you'll likely find more than acceptable.
