Stayed in the Ramada Hotel in Mitte last December:

I thought it was a lovely little hotel - there's a bar and restuarant there and it's next door to a supermarket - also lots of cheap cafes on same street and is also on same street as Club Rio (Big warehouse club, loads of different rooms, good fun, has page on MySpace somewhere). Worked out around €90 per twin room for us - so less than 50 per person per night. It's in walking distance or 5 mins in taxi from Rosa Luxembourg area which is worth a visit for second hand shops, 8mm bar and White Trash bar/restaurant.

I can't remember any names or even specific areas, but you're going to the right city. Kreuzberg has lots as does Freidrichstan (sp?).

Do NOT stay in a youth hostel in the turkish quarter. its one facing the river, bout 2 minutes from the opera place. it was like the fucking shining.
6 stories up in an empty nbuilding. weird noises and sinister employees. remember.... do NOT stay there.
that is all.

Sounds like you're sorted but I stayed at hotel Griefswald on Griefswalder strasse, Prenzlauer Berg. A nice little 2 star. Would recommend it highly. Area is brilliant, full of funky shops, great bars/restaurants; close to Alexander Platz and on a tramline which stops outside the hotel. Great venue next door, The Magnet, good for gigs and late night ventures. Great music.

Stayed in Circus Hostel in Mitte a few weeks ago, was lovely, clean, bright, had a nice buffet for a fiver in the morning, in a great location, right next to U Bahn and tram...and opposite a cake shop. Yum
just a few stops on the tram from Prenzlauer Berg and Kreuzberg.
