YellowSquare Reviews
YellowSquare is more than a hostel; it’s an international community designed for travelers who want to connect, work, and hang out. Across our locations in Italy and Greece, we provide female-only dorms, shared dorms, and private ensuite rooms, alongside working spaces and daily activities. Definitely not a boring hostel. From working over a coffee to evening events in our venues, we create a active atmosphere where locals and travelers meet and make friends. Every YellowSquare is a gateway to the city, focused on social vibes and the right place to meet people.
It’s truly amazing at yellow square🥰
Amazing staff, great environment, the bar is super cool. Would visit again!!
Amazing time at yellowsquare, meeting people and having good times and memories.
thanks A lot
Way too expensive for this level of confort. Social areas are in a separated building from the dorms we were staying in, which does not invite to experience them that much…
Dorms are OK but still waaaaay too expensive for a hostel, shared bathroom are very low standard. I do not recommend if you are not in here for socializing
The room was very small, 4 beds – we couldn’t stand up in the room. While one of us was getting ready to leave, the three of us had to wait in the beds. Also, the room smelled very bad and was very warm
The location is pretty good nearby to the subway station. The room was pretty small for 4 beds but it’s okay. The only problem about the room was that the bed didn’t have curtains.
My frustration with the hostel was about the comedy show that happens on Wednesday. They were very racist and homophobic during the comedy show. I went to the receptionist and complained about it.
I wouldn’t stay again. It’s unacceptable that in 2024 we still having this kind of “comedy”.
Great Hostel! I stayed previously in the YellowSquare Rome and just had the best time so wanted to come to the one in Florence. Great social life, events, bar and free pasta! I met some great people and participated in most events in the evenings. Easy to meet people, loved the rooftop pool and view. Clean facilities. Friendly staff. Perfect place to meet people and make new friends. Would 100% recommend- great location also from the airport can get the tram direct and walk about 3 minutes to the hostel. About a 30 minute walk from the main city. Area felt relatively safe for a solo female traveller. Onto Milan next time to complete the YellowSquare trio!
This place was its own building and it sort of felt like a resort which was great!
The staff were all nice and I liked that you had a welcome drink and they offered free pasta (which I never took advantage of).
The rooms were clean and they have events and activities everyday which is good for younger travellers.
The only negative feedback I had is that the water pressure in my room was terrible. It would barely spit out water when showering. I also got breakfast on my last day and there was a bug crawling around which was not a good sign of the cleanliness of the kitchen.
I’ve had a great experience at this hostel. The rooms surprised me (just like a hotel with a toilet and shower for every room). Also the modern and hygienic experience made it pleasant. On top of that, there was a really nice atmosphere among the guests and I’ve had a real good time.
Nice play to stay, very convenient and good location
The experience was great, the hospitality of the staff is good, they always help if you need it. For example they recommend us a near pharmacy and help us in how to get to the airport. Our room was clean and looked very conformable, counted with nice installations. Definitely I would stay again.
It was really amazing experience, super clean, helpful, full of activities and staff was just awesome.
I appreciated that it is clean and tidy, U have the opportunity tó socialize with other people, there are certain events they are organizing for tourists, which i highly recommend, either If its about an icecream tour őr about a karaoke night. It is öné of the best spot in milan If You are a Young traveller, either If You are alone őr with friends.
The experience was really great, the staff was very kind, the rooms were clean and the bathrooms too. The laundromat was a savior and the price was fair.
Great social atmosphere, met some really cool fellow solo travelers, I stayed in 4 bed female drop and it was comfortable with AC and ensuite and clean
While being very busy, staff were always friendly and happy to help. It has many facilities and provides many opportunities for guests to interact with new people during events and games. Beds were comfortable and are happy to make more private by providing a curtain (flat sheet) on request.
The people at the front desk were great. There was a mix up with the room that was a bit uncomfortable that they resolved very quickly
However, there was a man who came into the all female dorm pretty late at night to change a bed noone was sleeping it. That probably could have waited until morning.
Also I appreciated being able to leave my luggage there before check in.
Overall I didn’t stay long but it was fine.
Such a great hostel, definitely worth it going there. Everyone’s very friendly, there’s free pasta in the evenings and the rooms are big enough to have some privacy. Would definitely go there again.
Amazing vibes
The hostel is huge and has multiple locations depending on the type of dorm/room you have. Some rooms are bigger even though they are the same type (4 female dorm). Love that they have free pasta every day, but laundromat is way too small, not enough machines to use when it gets busy.
It would have been perfect if there’s curtain for individual bed.
The hostel is clean and the beds are very confortable. Good experience
Excellent hostel – really enjoyed it. In particular:
1) Nice social atmosphere
2) Clean modern rooms and bathrooms – I liked also how they had extra toilets on the ground floor
3) Nice food
4) Amazing rooftop views
I would actually have preferred staying here to a stuffy old hotel in the city centre, if given the choice!
Also can you please open a hostel near Venice!
We had an amazing stay overall, the hostel has a great atmosphere and the dorms were quite comfortable. Great place to meet new people and the perfect location to explore the city from but also enough distance from the city center to not be disturbed at night. The staff really stood out, everybody was very friendly!
First time in hostels and went with yellowsquare. Cant complain the social side of hostels is amazing but the dorms wasnt the best. The dorms at florence seem better than rome. Overall i was happy n would go back.
Sleeping at Yellowsquare was very convenient. Nice staff, clean rooms. The breakfast was ok for the price.
They provide everything you need and more than most hotels do!
Had a really great stay. Great atmosphere. Would recommend.
YellowSquare Rome is a really nice hostel! Less than 10min from the train station, which makes it easy when arriving. The staff is really welcoming and smiling, whether it is at the reception or at the bar. A lot of free activities are offered, as well as free pasta and a free drink on arrival. The dorms are clean, the only drawback is that since everything is in metal in the rooms (bed, lockers, chairs,…), it makes it difficult to be silent when coming late at night or leaving early in the morning. But that is only detail, if you want silence book a private room!
dirty bathrooms, bad shower, the hot water cools down during the shower, there is no ideal place to hang your clothes inside the bathroom, which causes clothes to get wet from the splashes of water from the shower. The room stank, due to the air conditioning. bunk beds without curtains for more privacy. For the amount they charge per day, it definitely left something to be desired.
I really liked staying at the hostel. The beds are very comfy and it’s close to the city center. The atmosphere of the hostel was very fun, the staff super nice and especially the drinks and the breakfast from the bar was great. I can only recommend to go there (and check out the roof top terrace with a pool!! 🙂 )!
Everything at the hostel is great. They have plenty of activities to get to know other people. The spaces are cosy and clean. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Location is good, but Milan is a big city, so if you want to go to the true centre centre, it is still a larger walk.
It was so easy to make friends. Either in your room or more likely down in the bar. The facilities were great, I especially loved the music corner where I‘ve had a jam session with other travellers. Location is good due to the two metro stations close by. The staff was so friendly and helpful. I stayed in a 4-bed female only dorm. The bathroom could have been bigger, it was quite small. It did make us a bit uncomfortable that the room service would just burst into your room directly after knocking on the door at strange hours. Apart from that I had a very pleasant stay. 10/10
I enjoyed the whole experience at the Hostel. A place with a lot of personality. Maria Eduarda helped me with all my questions and was always very polite.
Super nice hostel, sparkling clean and nice fellow people to meet. Staff is so friendly and nice rooftop / common areas
we had a great time! we enjoyed the hostel activities and were able to meet many new people which was one of the reasons we chose a hostel. we had a private room which was clean and cleaned up every day.
Amazing!
Loved the Events, loved the Pasta. Overall very nice
