YellowSquare Reviews: Florence
YellowSquare Florence provides female-only dorms, shared dorms, and private ensuite rooms. We have an easy working space in the shared areas where you can grab a coffee and work at the tables before or after check-in. For daily activities and food, Barmezzo has a restaurant and events every day like karaoke, quizzes, and beerpong. Bargiu is where the cool events happen featuring live music, dj sets and stand-up comedy that brings together locals and travelers. During the summer, you can head up to Barsu, our rooftop pool bar where social parties take place with a view.
Super welcoming staff and positive environment! There’s always something going on to meet other people staying there too
When I caught a cold ,the front desk staff treated me with great kindness and care.
They even escorted the visiting doctor to my room, which was extremely helpful. truly appreciate their support and attentiveness.
The complimentary pasta was also delicious, and the events looked very enjoyable. Next time stay, I would love to take part in one of the events. Thank you very much.
I had a great stay at YellowSquare Florence and really enjoyed the overall experience. The atmosphere is welcoming, lively, and international, making it perfect for both solo travelers and groups.
The staff is friendly, helpful, and always available, making you feel comfortable from the very beginning.
The location is also excellent, allowing you to explore Florence easily and stress-free.
Overall, a very positive experience. I would definitely come back and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a high-quality hostel with a great vibe.
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.
I had a very nice and impressive experience in Florence, the room is very big and clean, the food is also not bad, and i have made a friend with my roommate, which I think a really pleasure.
The best experience ever! Nicest receptionists and workers. Clean. Pretty place. Best price you’ll find out there.
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.
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
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.
Nice atmosphere, staff are super friendly, the place is very clean, the events were great and super fun, the bathroom is very decent, beds are nice and overall the whole thing is extremely cost-benefit, it’s more benefits than cost really.
Everything was excellent.
Overall I had a really good experience here, the staff were friendly and the people staying were amazing. I was staying in a very spacious dorm with good places to keep my things. I really enjoyed my stay here.
Overall a nice spot for short trip, it’s clean and has big space in room. Just one thing, it would nice to wash or change the quilt from time to time. My quilt has stain on it.
The room was comfortable, the other guests and staff were friendly, and the food and drinks at the bar were good and well priced. I loved the free pasta at night. The hostel was clean and well-kept, and I felt that everything was professional while still being fun.
I appreciated the location of this hostel, the amenities and the overall vibe! The staff is friendly and helpful! I recommend it!
Nice hostel, quite clean with great location and nice staff.
Kitchen is poorly furnished and dirty as well, serration does not function so all doors get trapped.
The room was incredible. Very spacious, the lockers were big and could fit my carry-on, plus a backpacks and some boots. The bathroom was also great: also spacious and the shower was pretty big as well. Very clean, in a good location, with access to 2 tram stations that connect both to the airport station and the central train station.
Friendly staff, immaculate rooms, and common areas, excellent restaurant quality kitchen preparing paid for meals, daily activities bringing people together and four minute walk to T2 tram to train station an the heart of Florence’s main attractions.
Room was not cleaned well – piss under toilet seat, old urine stains around toilet and hair. Cleaners were outside my door yelling or talking loudly every morning, waking me up.
Really warm and welcoming place. Staff were super chill, kind, and always ready to help. I really enjoyed mu stay.
The hostel was social good priced had free pasta and cereal, the showers were amazing and so were the dorm rooms I honestly don’t have a bad thing to say about YellowSquare Florence the only one thing is that it’s a bit out of the way from the center but the walk is nice and there are buses that you can get
Bed bugs
In my opinion a great place to stay. The common area is cozy and the vibe is good. Size of my room was great. Beds are fine in general. Sometimes it can get a bit noisy when you hit the metal wall part. Bathrooms are a bit aged but perfectly alright. It’s nice that the rooms have their own ones. I bet this place is vibrant in summer with the rooftop pool. I was happy about the curtain sheet you can get at the reception.
Absolutely the best! Way beyond my expectations. Friendly staff, brand new facilities, free paste, bar and other activities make this YellowSquare so unique. Would love to come back if possible.
Great staff, met some wonderful people, would definitely recommend!
My experience at this hostel in Florence was excellent. The staff is very friendly and always willing to help. The facilities are well-maintained, clean, and have a very welcoming atmosphere. They also organize plenty of activities, making it easy to meet people and fully enjoy your stay.
We had a small issue with the two people we were sharing the room with, but when we spoke to the staff, they understood our perspective, were very kind, and resolved everything immediately.
I was so pleased with the experience that I’ll be traveling to Milan in a few days and have already booked with them again. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a comfortable, clean hostel with a great social atmosphere.
The hostel was social, the free pasta was good too! The bathroom smelt terrible tho and there was no airflow in the rooms. The thermostat wasn’t great either
The hostel is located at a good location. About 10 min away from the train station and a tram just around the corner. Its a beautiful building with an overall nice feel and look. The staff is warm, welcoming and kind. They where very helpful when the ac didn’t work and when the offered to change rooms. We stayed at a private room and had almost everything we needed. Overal I would recommend, but it is important to know that (some) of the private rooms are close to the bar and music may be played and heard till 2.15 am. The rooms are hot en the ac can not be regulated per room and in november only blow hot air. If you do not turn on the ac its okay, but if you prefer a cooler room its not possible cause the window can not be openend.
Yellowsquare provided a pleasant, warm, comfortable, budget friendly stay in Florence. It’s less than 20 minutes by foot from the main train station. I liked staying outside of the historic core of Florence. It’s plenty close, but situated on a quiet street. We enjoyed breakfast, but also used the kitchen most of the days we stayed. We also enjoyed the free pasta from 8-9 pm. Our room (two bunk beds and a full-size bed) was spacious enough, had a nice bathroom, and was quiet. We appreciate that the rooms seem to have sound isolation. Overall, the staff were very warm and friendly. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
Nice hostel
Great stay, clean, hot shower, kind staff. Plenty amenities like a laundromat, garage to store bikes or cars, lockers if you like to continue exploring the city after your stay. There’s a bar with games and books and plenty of outlets to charge your devices. There’s activities at night to join in and mingle. We stayed on a Wednesday and didn’t have any noise disturbance.
Excellent in every way 🙂
Enjoyed my stay overall and was a good location. Have stayed 2 times now as easy to get to the city from here. Kitchen facilities were good, always kept clean. Some rooms have curtains others don’t. First room I stayed in didn’t, second time it did. Decent wifi and good indoor anf outdoor space. Free pasta for dinner was also a bonus and yum. Nice to get a free drink card too.
From the staff, to the amenities, and to the room, YellowSquare was great especially for its price. The hostel is conveniently located near the Redi Tram Station and the bus stop. Aside from this, they provide amenities like a rooftop pool and a beautifully decorated common area where they also serve free pasta for dinner.
The room I stayed in was clean and had lockers and a asafe to store our belongings. The bathroom has soap and shampoo to our use. My stay would have been perfect if there was no mosquitoes in my bed
