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 WAS A TRULY FANTASTIC EXPERIENCE. ESPECIALLY IF YOU’RE A SOLO TRAVELER, THIS PLACE SHOULD BE AT THE TOP OF YOUR LIST. Because they make you feel like you belong to the city within hours of arriving. I’m sorry I missed the complimentary pasta. But thank you so much for the complimentary wine. The cleanliness, the attention, and the hostel activities were fantastic.
Overall, my stay at YellowSquare Rome was fine but nothing special. The hostel is clean and the staff are friendly, but the dorm beds don’t have curtains, which for me is a big downside. The atmosphere is very social, but at times it felt a bit forced, like the hostel is trying too hard to create a party vibe. The location is also a bit far from the historic centre, which became annoying when going back and forth. If you’re mainly looking to meet people and don’t mind less privacy or extra walking/transport, it could work, but it wasn’t quite my style.
The hotel very good brand new
Exlent location near for everything you want
the room very clean and modern
the stuff’s very friendly and helpful
i recommend any one wanna visit Athena
Amazing!
I travelled with a friend. Our room was clean, and cleaned every day.
We received welcome drinks at the beautiful bar with view of the acropolis
And they have free interesting events happening all week to get to know people!
staff/volunteers there were super nice and we had great conversations with them.
Only downside is its in a slightly dodgy area, and the kitchen was a bit dirty when I used it
The property was very clean. Was not too loud at night and had great promotions at the bar/restaurant across the street. Very welcoming staff. My only complaint is the fee to purchase a bath towel. Considering I stayed in a private room, I wished I would have been provided with 1 or 2 complimentary bath towels.
A great experience overall !
The room is very clean and the bed is very comfortable however the walls are a bit thin, you can hear everything that is happening in the corridor.
The location is nice, it’s 4 min from the station porta romana
The best experience ever! Nicest receptionists and workers. Clean. Pretty place. Best price you’ll find out there.
It has a beautiful view, and all the staff are extremely friendly and efficient, not to mention the unbeatable location, which is very central and close to all the tourist attractions.
It was great isual impaired and staff stepped up if had any questions about money or directions anything at all ND th pasta was great
Through the most one of my very hard times in life, this place was my warmest spot, where I felt welcomed and safe.
I enjoyed my morning coffee, the lovely staff.
Super clean, warm, kind spot that I would warmly recommend to anyone.
I love staying in this hostel!! Especially Athens and Rome, I was extremely well received and helped by all the team of both units. They were kind, generous and friendly. Also, the events and social interaction developed for the guests are completely amazing!!!
It has a cozy and lively atmosphere and the staff are very friendly. They helped me with everything, awss!
The hostel sleeping arrangements were comfortable, and it was fun to hear about Italy experiences from other guests. However, I was annoyed when I asked to play ping pong (outside) and was told it’s closed. The staff were friendly but it felt like the manager tried to power trip me.
the employees were really nice
Hostel was clean, accessible and safe. Close to the main train terminal and easy to walk or scooter/bike to points of interest
Good service and quality in general. Only the smell in my bathroom was bad. Location es good.
Staff, security, comfort A++
Exceeded my expectations. The room as clean, the staff was so helpful and friendly, and the social events schedule were impressive even though we didn’t actually end up participating. Would definitely stay here again if visiting Athens.
Hostel was clean with comfortable bed, good showers and good breakfast options at reasonable cost. I had a private room as over 45 (30 years over) and it was equal to a hotel room. Rooftop bar and activities are a bonus. Location was great, within walking distance of metro, sites and restaurants
It good located close to to termini like about 10 minits in the other direction of the center but still not so far…its clean but it needs mainatanance as thousands of people visited the place ehich is good but from the other hand its consumed and needs frequent maintanance which i didnt notice..also i didnt find a handheld toilet bidet sprayer which i prefare to use when its available…and there is a bar under the hostel you will hear a houd sound of the dj specially at week ends as they celebrate so it will be hard to sleep … The good thing is that there is a safe box for each one the bad thing that happened with me the pin that i used for 2 days it didnt work for some reason when i was checking out at 5:00am as i got my flight some hours after but the reception as its 24hrs they cane and used the master code and it was solved quick thanx to them :)) the last thing the bed curtains were upsent as i prefare them for pricecy and light control.
Clean rooms, nice staff, own bathroom, lots of activities, close to metro and only 20 min to main train station.
I loved every day I spent at the hostel, great and cheerful atmosphere with amazing people. I loved the parties, the atmosphere, and the great company.
All amazing, the activities, the people was just the best environment.
Thank you very much for helping me in a moment when I was feeling sick! You really went above and beyond.
Like always, YellowSquare offers great vibes and you feel like you belong among “strangers”. I would choose this place any day.
its not the worse thing ever but like for the price i wouldnt recommend it
i booked a 4 dorm female and i was with two woman who were respectively 46 and 48
how is it possible when the limit is 45 i dont know
they slept at 10 pm on new year and woke me up at 5 in the morning the day after
so not ideal
most of the activities i wanted to do were canceled last minute because not enough people
Amazing people, amazing staff, amazing room. Everything was perfect. The location near the train station is very convenient and the historic center of Rome is at around 30 minutes by walk.
The free pasta every evening save my life a few times.
I think is a really nice place to know new people
It was very good.
Friendly and helpful staff
Things to improve:
Auditory Insulation should be much much enhanced between rooms themselves and even the corridor.
A telephone line with reception should be eshtablished.
Cleaning services should be 24 hours a day.
My stay was awesome. The staff is very polite and high energy. I met so many cool people. Would definitely stay again
I had a very good stay at this hostel. The beds are comfortable and the place is really clean overall. The rooms, kitchen, and common areas are cleaned regularly and very well maintained. The kitchen is fully equipped with everything you need to prepare food, and it was always clean. The living room is a great shared space with internet and a computer, perfect for relaxing and meeting other travelers.
The staff were kind and helpful. Mateo was especially nice and supportive, he even helped me when my phone was stolen by a pickpocket, which I really appreciated. Even though I did not have time to go to the bar, there were always people around willing to help, and the atmosphere was friendly and welcoming.
The only downside was the toilet smell. Even though it was cleaned every day, there was a strange odor that did not go away, even after I bought something to improve it. I am not sure where the smell was coming from.
Despite that, I really enjoyed my stay. It is a clean, social, and comfortable place, great for meeting nice people. I would still recommend it and I am thankful for the great service.
Nice, well-designed spaces with lots of coworking areas. The first floor is open all night and has good social vibes. Kitchen area was social, and there are many activities. Staff were friendly and helpful — even lent me supplies to fix a zipper.
Downsides: wifi was weak, the gym had no weights, and the kitchen and rooftop close too early. It can also get chilly at night.
Good, central location. The area has some abandoned buildings but felt safe. Bonus: lots of resident cats.
We are a family of four and felt very welcome at Yellowsquare. Staff were friendly and helpful. Lots of energy and advice which we loved.
Everything was good, I enjoyed my stay. I didn’t like how water from the shower door would drip onto the common area floor. I wish towels were free, but I did like how they provided ear plugs, and a personal safe.
The room was clean.
Place is cozy.
Drinks are affordable.
Staff were friendly and helpful.
The staff are amazing and helpful! We really enjoyed our time there.
We did have one issue (not your fault at all) but our some of our food that was named for stolen/eaten from the fridge so I thought I would let you know about that. But that’s not on you.
The vibe of the hostel was really good. I really enjoyed the pasta dinner and free drink at the bar. the food options at the bar were really good. I like the kitchen and coomom working space as well.
I did not like the condition of the room. The bed mattress was sunken in the middle; moreover, the washroom was really small, and the shower did not have hot water. The hostel really needs to renovate the rooms.
Moreover, the vending machine was not working
