Depends on what you want.

Want a normal game.  castle king-side.  Want a wild tactical slugfest, castle
queen-side, but be sure you analyze correctly since white already has an open C
file bearing on your future king position...

If your program is good at attacking, castle opposite.  If it is more
conservative, castle to the same side.  That is what I do in fact...  If one
side were more secure, I would certainly castle there, but here neither the
kingside nor queenside is shredded open.  yet...
