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.
The space is incredible, the staff is wonderful. Inside the hostel there is everything. I couldn’t be happier with this reservation.
I hope to come back soon, or try the other yellow square hostels
I had an amazing stay at yellowstone in Milan! It was my first stay at an hostel and also my first solo trip as a female solo traveller and felt completely safe in this hostel. I stayed in a 4 female “shoebox” room. The room was extremely clean and the girls were all so nice! I had a locker for my valuables and a locker for a trolley, I forget my lock and bought one at the reception for only €2! We also had a balcony that was a really nice surprise. The activities witch where organized where really fun!
Honestly a lovely stay in Rome. It was my first time staying in a hostel and YellowSqaure has set the bar high. There was a problem with my original room and the staff was so accommodating and put me in a different room very fast. The room was very clean and had just enough privacy.
It was a really good experiencia, the hostel has a nice environment, beds are confortable, staff is helpful, it is close to a Subway station and Remini. Very recommended!
Well worth the 77 euros. Quiet floor, super attentive staff, new room (must have been) because the cleanliness beat every hostel I’ve ever stayed in. Even the recycling containers were shiny. Perfect shower (a rarity). Really clean and fluffy towels. AND they fit a queen size bed in a smallish room with no unnecessary furniture crowding things into corners like the 100 euro dumps near Stazione Termini in Rome. No dangerous, wobbly standup closets or dirty chairs taking up space. Plus there was adorable art on the wall. (teardrops). Highly recommended.
The staff was very helpful and friendly. They are also very knowledgeable and can direct you to on things to do and where to go; I asked one of the staff on where to go for food and clubs and he directed me to canal naviglio grande location and ended up having a good time at that area. The rooms were very clean and the set-up was as ideal… I also met some great roommates and other people there!
Very friendly staff, easy check in. Lots of fun things offered on site, lots included (yellow tag for 20% off drinks at the bar, coffee in reception in the mornings, 1 free drink of choice when you arrive, free pasta during the week). The rooms was very clean and modern, lockers and security safe provided. The only thing I didn’t like was that the room was very hot, AC temp didn’t appear to change, despite setting to a lower temperature. The hostel is well priced and very easily located/situated. The amenities are very good, and I could store my bag for the day for £1 after I checked out.
“I had an incredible experience at the hostel in Rome. Not only did I feel safe throughout my stay, but the environment was also highly interactive. The staff and the volunteers went above and beyond, genuinely caring for and addressing all our needs. The location was incredibly convenient, making it easy to explore the city. The activities provided were not only enjoyable but also added a fun dimension to the overall experience. I especially appreciated the individual safes for guests and the lively bar, where the staff was both kind and helpful. My stay was so memorable that I find myself wanting to revisit Rome just to reexperience the exceptional hospitality of this hostel.”
Very attentive and super friendly. Kind throughout our stay. Really recommended. We liked the kitchen with all the necessary materials to make a good meal. Clean and despite all the meetings that were held it was very quite.
4 day in that hostel , people who worked there was really friendly , and memory that i got are amazing
Matress and room are clean , bathroom is clean too
The bar the kitchen , everything was perfect
I recommand it
It was ok. Just the bathroom inside the rooms was a bit bad because makes more noise.
My greetings to the staff
Simply the best hostel I’ve ever stayed in! All the staff very well trained and friendly (especially Sabrina). Extremely clean and comfortable. I felt like I was in a hotel. The hostel bar is a great place to make friends, not to mention all the perks you get from staying there. I’ve never seen anything like it. Incredible!
Everton and Sabrina are the best! Good people, gentle and helpfull. See yah
Technically the place has most of what you need. But it’s very average quality in all areas.
Having booked a private twin room it would have been nice to have at least a kettle. But you see, the place is riddled with rule charts and limitations. Before even entering, under the door number it states ‘no food, no drinks, no smoking’. When you pay the price they set, it’d be nice to have the freedom to eat in your room. Being an adult this is condensending beyond belief. Following on from that, you have a “dos and don’ts” by the window reminding you not to “throw things out the window” but to instead “practise meditation”. The ‘totally like chill vibe ‘ that’s obviously held core at reception is absent in the rooms. Even the shampoo bottle tells you to turn the water off while you use it in the shower. Typical of a business that tries too hard to be something other than primarily caring for their customers.
It is obnoxious in a way that it must have taken a high level of creativity to arrive at.
Bathroom is essentially a closet with a shower. Water takes 5 minutes to get hot if you’d even call it hot. Heating wasnt a free choice. Blankets are paper thin. Mattresses slide off the frame so sitting up in bed isn’t comfortable. Noise can be an issue, walls appear paper thin.
The location is decent and hygiene was adequate. But once again, pair that with the price and it really leaves you no other choice but to consider elsewhere.
Clean hostel, very social and easy to meet people, staff is polite, room was nice and big enough.
Had a great time here. There is so much available on site from salon, business area, bar and food. I got to meet several, really cool people. My breakfast was great.
The room was clean and secure. Every staff person I interacted with was very friendly and helpful.
Locker can fit a large backpack and a few things tucked around it. Cabin bag/carryon, I had to slip under the bed. 1€ towel was available when I was there. Open WiFi access. It was winter and the room was comfortably warm. There was one bathroom in the room (sink, toilet, shower), shared by up to 6, but a sink was available outside of the bathroom as well.
Had a great stay at the hostel exceeded all my expectations and would happily return when in Rome again
I stayed for two nights. It was very good. No complaints. free drinks and free pasta added to the value. Staffs were also amazing. Rooms and bathrooms were both tidy and clean.
The hostel was amazing!
Tons of activities to do, affordable drinks and food, amazing people willing to interact with you.
I had a blast
Amazing staff and facilities, perks. Great cleanliness for a hostel, stylish interior and overall very good value!
Good position, clean hostel.
Great place, safe, full of colour, confortable and cheap bar 🙂
I recommand going on the rooftop, it is everything :))
The hostel itself is fresh, clean and has all the facilities you could want and/or expect when it comes to having that european hostel experience.
My highlights are:
1. The short walk from the tram station (although the hostel is not central it is not remote)
2. The incorporated rooftop terrace, bar and kitchen with reasonable prices for bare sustenance and convenience
3. The daily room cleans and towel changes (private dorms)
The only fall back for us personally was the heavy, deafening bass on Friday and Saturday nights emanating from the club below us. Although the existence of the club is well publicised and the website even mentions requesting earplugs, i did not expect for the private 2 person dorm to be the room directly above the club. My suggestion would be that the large dorms be situated close to the club as they are the more likely to use it.
9/10
It was my first time staying in a hostel and i was so hesitant at first but then I loved my experience a lot! Everything was amazing from the activities, food, and ambiance. We had a different activity each day. Reception was open 24h and it felt like a safe environment
overall great experience
Our stay in Yellowsquare marked the end of our long trip. Before our stay, we were all ready to go home and our stay in our previous accomodation certainly did not help our experience. Yellowsquare felt like a “gift from god”. The room was affordable, clean, organised, and everything fell in place, the staff was friendly and efficient, the lobby and shared space was inviting, and the luggage room was convenient to say the least. If we ever Milan or Rome, we will definitely be staying at your accomodation. Thank you for hostpitality 😀
A very social atmosphere, conveniently located with friendly staff. The amenities were well maintained and clean. The common area had plenty of boardgames to break the ice with other travellers. Overall, a great stay and would not hesitate to return.
It was my second time at Yellow Square. Everything was great, staff cleanness, bed, bathroom. Loved it. Would stay again for sure
There is more need for cleaning at the rooms, the staff is the best about it, but the lack of clean sheets and towels is something that should be a must.
Nice and good service
I enjoyed the location and vibrant energy of the hostel. Great for solo travelers and groups.
I liked a lot the hostel, it had everything my friends and I needed. We felt comfortable and had fun.
