how much is the correct fare by tuk tuk or taxi to the centre of Changrai from bus station where the guest houses are so I dont get ripped off, and can you recomend a cheap guest house around 250 baht?

Chiang Rai bus station?

The bus station is virtually in the centre of the city. You may not need to take a tuk-tuk at all. For cheap accommodation head to the river point where there are quite a few cheap places to stay at even less than the amount you stated.
Chaing Rai town is not very big, no tuk-tuk trip should cost more than 30 baht.
