Where to stay in Berlin?

[Chels]

Hi all,

Looking for a recommendation for a hostel in Berlin. Two chicks travelling together, prefer twin room in hostel to a dorm, but single-sex small dorm ok.
Don't want to spend more than 25E a night if possible...

Can anyone advise?

Also location-wise, where is it best to stay in Berlin? East, west, central etc? Any comments are most welcome as I have NO fricking idea. We are only there for 3 nights so want to make the most of it.

Arriving at Schoenfeld airport...

Thanks!!

PS We want a bit of sightseeing, bit of culture, bit of partying, bit of shopping....
