Others

Hostels - try e.g. http://www.hostelbookers.com/, but be careful to pick "Private rooms", usually the hostels offer shared rooms, which means literally anyone can sleep in the bed next to you. This mainly refers to "special offers" for 7-8EUR per night - there might be even 10beds in the room! If you want to use the room as private, you usually have to pay for all beds.

Hotels - you may want to try http://www.hotelbookers.com/,  we recommend to watch if the price is per room or per person.

When booking the room, please pay attention to double/twin naming:
Double room - one large bed for two people (Adam and Eve)
Twin room - two separate beds (Adam and Steve)
