YellowSquare Reviews: Florence

The staff are very kind and helpful, their organization of the activities brought people together so that I was never truly alone in Florence

Overall it was pretty good. The staff was very kind and the facilities were nice and clean.

The water drain system is worse in my dorm room.

The rooms were really nice and the staff as well. Everyone was super friendly and the activities were really fun. It was nice to get to know other people from lots of different countries and I especially enjoyed the pasta cooking class.

The Staff is lovely, the area at the reception so nice for Food, chill and talks. The Food and Drinks are amazing.
The “architecture” is well organized. There are a lot of extra bathrooms next to the pool. The Rooms are friendly designt and the air conditioner works super.
Love to come back.
Best regards Tommy

It was wonderful and the staff is so friendly.

This hostel was completely perfect, it was so clean, fun and had everything you could imagine – felt like more of a 5 star hotel. All of the staff were so friendly, kind, helpful and fun! Could not recommend this hostel more.

Our room was very comfortable (except for the blackout which didn’t quite block out all the light) and the staff was very nice. In a city with overpriced accommodation, this is definitely a great option. Even though it isn’t in the city center, it’s very close to a tram station. The pool on the rooftop is a great selling point!

To be a hostel its incredibile

Everything happened ao well. The location, the room and the staff

From arrival to departure everything was great, the activities planned for the guests were such a nice touch, everyone was so open and friendly and YellowSquare have created a safe environment where everyone can feel comfortable, which is not an easy thing to do. Everything was also so clean and the food was really nice!

Really enjoyed staying at this hostel 🙂 Staff are really friendly and Cleanliness is 10/10. It was a bit further out from the centre of Florence but it wasn’t an issue for me as it has very good transport links and it’s only a 20 mins (slow) walk to the centre.

love the environment here

The perfect way to enjoy Florence. The pool saw many hours of sitting in the sun chilling, socialising and partying. Wouldn’t have been the same without that. The pool was a great place to meet some amazing people. Breakfast was lovely. The facilities and dorms left no complaints. Had a brilliant time

Nice social hostel we you can meet fellow travelers. Location is fine, although a bit far from the historic centre. Only real downside was that my dorm only had one bathroom for 6 people. This is not that big of a problem as there were other bathrooms at the hostel

Brilliant hostel! Great location and walking diastase to everything. The staff are wonderful and very helpful! The perks of a rooftop pool and peaceful outside area is a great bonus. One of the best hostel I’ve stayed in. Great activities too. Can’t wait to return

Very good place to stay in. Everything was fine apart of the noise in the corridors just in front of the rooms after 11pm when we wanted to sleep no matter whether it was Saturday, Monday or Tuesday.
People woke me up at 3 pm twice. They were shouting in the early morning hours.
The hostel should put the signs in the corridors “Please keep the noise down from 10pm until 7am because many are sleeping”.

The facilities were clean, the staff was helpful, it was well located, lots of cool social events, it had a great vibe

Everything was literally perfect I have nothing to says

A very beautiful environment, well located with all the services we could hope for. The team is charming and helpful, the lunches are fabulous! Thank you for your warm welcome to our group of 18 who were delighted.

Great accommodations and amenities. Staff are super friendly and helpful. Free pasta in the evenings- nice for those travellers on a budget.

Only thing I didn’t like what motion sensor lights in the dorms. When people came in late a bright light would come on, not great if you’re still trying to fall asleep.

N/A

One of the nicest hostels I stayed in during my month-long trip. Nice bathrooms, laundry on-site was very convenient and having events at the hostel made it really easy to meet people. Only downside is that it is a good 25 minute walk to the city center however there is a tram right across the street which is very helpful.

The hostel is nicely designed. There are daily special events. Clean environment with super nice staffs! An enjoyable night at the bar!

This is the best hostel I’ve stayed in! It was super clean, conveniently located near the tram, offered a myriad of social activities, had A/C & the most amazing breakfast potatoes!!

Staff were so friendly, bar and atmosphere were great. The hostel itself is clean and well presented and has plenty of activities and outdoor space and seating. The roof pool is a great addition too!

I really enjoyed my stay here! As for basics: beds are comfy, enough space for your stuff and a lockerbox at the bed. But what makes this hostel great is the activities and the rooftop area. I loved the pasta cooking class and the pubquiz night. Also met so many fun people at the rooftop pool! It’s clean, fun and really cannot recommend more.

This was one of the best hostels I’ve ever stayed in. The property is very clean and modern and has an upper deck pool that overlooks all of Florence. The staff were great to interact with and the food/drinks were good as well. The only thing I’d change is allowing guests of private rooms the ability to manage the room temp as our room got a bit hot/stuffy at times.

Everything was very well organized. I felt very welcome and there were lots of activities one could choose from. Obviously, there were mostly young people but even as an older person I didn’t feel out of place. I welcomed the possibility to have a curtain in fron of my bed, have a safe and a locker. It is also very conveniently located.

The hostel is cool and the staff are really nice… but the structure could be improven. In my experience, the major problem is that the beds do not have any kind of isolation, like curtains,for example, so the privacy is not really good and also if you are a person that wakes up easily with noise and light, your sleep will not be the best.
Another point that I have to write about it, is the cleanliness… it’s not that good. The floor of the shower area was not nicely clean and everytime someone tooks a shower, all the bathromm floor remained wet, because didn’t have any kind of vedation.
Anyway, the size of the rooms was good, the atmosphere was nice and they have a lot of events that will help you meet people, so if you are traveling alone, that’s pretty nice.

I loved the hostel. I think the pasta class should get more attention because that was awesome!

YellowSquare Florence is the absolute best hostel I’ve ever stayed at. Great vibe and good community! I will be back!

I waited to write my review since this was my first stay at a hostel and it honestly was above and beyond everywhere else I stayed on my trip. The rooms were comfortable and spacious and cleaned daily. The rooftop pool and bar were such fun amenities, and there was also a changing room available to me before I could check in which was so nice after a long day of travel. I had 2 folks help me at registration and I don’t know their names but they were both so sweet and helpful, and honestly all the staff I encountered were super kind. The atmosphere was also super fun in the common spaces it was so easy to meet people. The location is also perfect it’s so close to the tram and a short walk to the city and train station!
