Had a great time in this hostel. The staff is friendly and it seems that everyone who stays there is friendly as well. The lobby is lively with people talking and watching movies, and there is some cheap beer too. The internet works in all rooms which is a big plus. It's a twenty minute walk to a station, which is around 5 stops from the city center, which is not amazing but for Berlin it seems pretty nice. The atmosphere is great and I felt at home while staying there.

Fantastic atmosphere at the hostel and its easy to meet other people in the common area. The city is so big, so its not important where you are staying. The hostel is in short distance to restaurant and bars, and you can also find a lot of clubs (not in the same street). Great staff at the hostel - they will try to help you as good as they can with everything. You will also get timetables after the booking, so its easy to get to the hostel.

Excellent hostel in a fantastic area of Berlin. Vibrant bars, cafes and clubs all within walking distance. The staff are all very friendly and helpful. The common area is a really nice chilled place to drink some beers and meet fellow travellers, unfortunately this closes at 12pm every night. Highly recommended though.

Fantastic area (Kreuzberg) in the greatest city in Europe. Walking distance to incredible bars, clubs, & restaurants; 5 minutes away from the nearest U-bahn. Cool common area to hang out & meet people, great atmosphere, incredibly big rooms with really comfortable beds, super clean, & such a nice staff (shout out to Julian!). Non-24-hour reception is no problem at all since it's easy & safe to get into the rooms at all hours (& you will be coming back at 5-7 am everyday in Berlin). A must stay!

Amazing time at Jetpak Alternative. The neighbourhood was awesome, the staff were great and the whole atmosphere seemed geared up to helping travellers meet one another, enjoy the city and have a good time. I loved the fuss-free check in, I loved the fact we had iPod speakers and a TV in our room, I loved the HUGE hot shower and massive comfy pillows and decent-sized lockers. The area was absolutely brilliant, too.

Hands down best hostel I've ever stayed in. Clean / amazing, chill atmosphere / excellent staff / coolest neighborhood. Beer and beverages available for purchase in the common room and free coffee/cappuccinos in the AM. Did I mention there are also heated floors in the bathrooms?!?

great place to stay. location is perfect, just in the middle of the Wrangelkiez with lots of nice bars and pubs and probably the best Döner in the World. Atmosphere is great, Bernhard recommended all the nice bars in the quarter. Very familiar atmosphere because there are no big groups and a nice breakfast every morning. Also the best facilities i have ever seen in a hostel. I would give a 100 out of 100 percent. You can just see the love for detail in every part of the hostel.

Excellent hostel, one of the best I've ever stayed in! Thanks to Julian, Francesca & Bernard plus the rest of the gang at Jetpak for their hospitality, conversations, baked goods and coffees. The hostel itself was clean, comfortable, social yet quiet at the same time (Perfect for me!). Location was close enough by trains to major sights, many interesting places to eat and go out locally. Best nights out were at the local bars with Jetpak guests after 1 Euro beer pre-drinks in the common room.

Awesome hostel, one of the best I've stayed at, very family feel and excellent for meeting people. Staff make you feel right at home and spend a lot of their time being social and talking with the guests. Free breakfast is also great as is the beer for 1 euro each.

One of the best Hostels ever.Awesome staff (especially Julian and Francesca), that is really engaged that individuall travellers somehow interract. Awesome Espresso and Cappuccino and one of the best hostel breakfasts. One huge plus, is that you have walk through the common area, so it is very easy to meet people. Rooms are spacious, and clean! Will definitly stay there again on my next Berlin visit.
