Yellowsquare Reviews
The hostel has a great location and the rooms are nice.
The walls are really thin and the people in our floor where a bit loud sometimes.
but the overall experience was good and I would book the hostel again.
I spent one night at Yellowsquare because my niece was staying there. I was pleasantly surprised by the size of the room (private single room) and the comfort of it. Sheets and towels are provided. It’s comparable to a 3-star hotel and more reasonably priced. The hostel is located in a quiet, residential neighborhood just a few minutes’ walk from metro and tram stops. They organize lots of social events, tour and other activities. Staff are extremely friendly and helpful.
The staff is fantastic, the guests were friendly. I met nice people, enjoyed the free pasta (what you’d expect from free food), and appreciated a glass of wine as a welcome drink for free! I would have very much appreciated a non alcoholic option and discounts extended to N/A drinks as well. I felt like my best bet was to order alcohol because of the discounts, but I hadn’t drank in 6 months prior. It would be great to not encourage drinking so much, even though I understand that is a popular activity and does bring in great revenue.
There is a club/bar and you can hear the activities late into the night from the rooms. The bathroom was kind of nasty, lots of hair in corners, grimy floor and bathtub. The hallways didn’t seem to be cleaned daily. The beds were clean, so that was critical!
Overall, I’d stay again because of the great activities, people, and general atmosphere, but with a few small improvements, this could be an OUTSTANDING location. Thanks for everything!!
I had an amazing stay! The staff were very friendly, the rooms were clean, and everything I needed was available. I would definitely recommend this place and would love to come back again!
The activities Yellowsquare organized helped solo travelers like me to connect and feel that sense of community
Very friendly personel, good location and great people in general.
At night there was a guy screaming all night long and hitting the iron frame of his bed after wich he fell from the upper double bed on the ground. Very funny guy haha 10/10 would come again
Great and very social hostel. I stayed in 4 female dorm and it was perfect. It’s very close to metro, restaurants and supermarkets. All the staff were very accommodating.
The hostel was fine in terms of cleanliness, facilities, and customer service. I arrived quite late and the bar area was busy, but I was greeted and checked in immediately. I shared a dorm with 3 other women and the room was very clean and so was the bathroom, and shampoo, towels, handwashing, and a hairdryer etc. were all available. There was a lack of secure storage in the room, but there is secure storage in the basement which I used when exploring the city. Great location too.
An amazing hostel. Great facilities, brilliant amenities and fantastic custpmer service. One of the best hostels I’ve ever stayed in ,
Hostel is good. 5 min walking distance to termini to catch any metro or bus. Amenities and rooms are as mentioned in description. Breakfast is okay.
Colosseum: Take 75 number bus from Indipendenza (3-4 min walking distance from hostel)
Trevi fountain, Pantheon, Piazza Navona: Take 87 number bus from Colosseum to Corso.
Trastevere: Take 75 number bus
Spanish Steps: Take metro line A from termini. Exit at spagna. Just 400m walking distance.
From destination in rome, if you are going back to hostel, just take 75 or 492 bus.
I quite enjoyed this hostel! Clean, and nice ppl. I booked rather quickly without checking out ammenities and it would’ve been really nice if the front desk ppl had mentioned there’s a kitchen etc etc. I didn’t find that out till the day I left when I put my luggage in storage. That’s all!
I thought the staff were super accommodating and nice, and the bar/cafe downstairs has pretty good prices. i wished there was more common spaces indoors, but the kitchen was super great and well-equipped! the rooms are pretty small but shower and bathroom is good and clean. My only complaint would be that the duvet is the thickness of a paper towel, and so I was so cold at night.
The hostal is very cool and always found everything impecable. I had an issue since some other guests took the bed is was meant for me, staff couldn’t help a lot but were happy to reacomodate me and offer me a free drink in compensation. Even though not all staff were helpful or even nice, there were a couple of them that always treated us with a smile
so friendly, so social, such cool vibes. loved it
Yellow square was amazing , I did my first ever solo trip and decided to stay in yellow square . After a long day of exploring it was so comfortable to come in , have a chat with people around the world , board games , dinner etc. I was worried about hostel stays before my travel but yellow square made it a memory . I will definitely come back
