Not sure what your budget is but I have always been able to get good rates at the Eaton Hotel. They have varied room levels but I get the run of the mill room, which is small, but clean and the Hotel is in a good location (Near the Night and Jade Markets. There is a fabulous roof-top pool/healthclub that offers great views.

We stayed at the YMCA Salisbury which is ideally located and next to the Peninsula hotel. It was very reasonable and a wonderful place to stay and they even upgraded our room to a suite with a harbor view. Would stay there again. They have a web site: http://www.ymcahk.org.hk/sales/html/hst001e.htm
Hotel also easy access to and from airport.

If you are a dirt-cheap budget traveller, could also try some of the budget hotels in the Mirador or Chungking Mansions.... place doesn't look nice from the outside but the hostels/hotels there are all hit/miss. See one, don't like it, go to the next one.
Mirador is nicer than Chungking, by rule.
I stayed at the YHA on Mt Davis, closer to the Macao Ferry Terminal. Cheap (sub-US$10/night) but had to take a special bus from the Ferry Terminal to get there (or a taxi).

Last two weeks of April can get pricey
Just a heads up.
Not sure what your travel dates are, but the last two weeks of April are typically more expensive than the beginning of April due to the influx of travelers for the Canton Fair in Guangzhou and the Hong Kongs Gift Fair.
Safe travels!

The recommendations here so far (spanning from Chungking Mansions
to the Eaton Hotel) are pretty broad... perhaps a clearer definition of
how "cheap" you are looking for would help...
One other point of information for you... When I travel to HK, I would
not dream of going as "downscale" as Chungking Mansions, but I also
would consider the Eaton or the Salisbury YMCA to be a splurge. For
my budget, I usually like the Evergreen Hotel (www.evergreenhotel.com).
Nice location, clean and quiet rooms, close to transit and the airport
bus stop.
Just one more to consider.

It's a bit on the seedy side if you're a single woman, if you're a guy it's not too bad, just man up and you'll walk out fine. Businesses are mostly Indian-owned there.
I suggest you watch the movie Chungking Express, not only is it one of the best movies ever made, IMO, it's set there. Good knowledge of HK society helps understand the film better though.

If you need a respite from the crowds, don't mind ferry rides and want to see rural 
HK, then Silvermine Bay Hotel (***) on Lantau might fit in. Breakfast is included. The Mui Wo Cooked Food Market has ocean front seating.
taxi (blue) there is about 150HK$ from airport and will be an interesting ride
Happy wandering
