YellowSquare Reviews: Florence

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 🙂

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

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.

A really good place to spend few days
The team is really kind and listening if you need help or advise
The room were clean and confortable

I had a great time. The staff is incredibly helfpul and friendly, the hostel is very clean and tidy.
The best part were all the activities and events to socalaze.

we booked the hostel for the roof top. unfortunately it was closed. the beds were very noisy.
apart from that the hostel is beautiful and the staff is incredibly kind

Super fun crowd, clean amenities, fun vibes, and overall a great stay

The place was spotless, the staff couldn’t have been more helpful & the place is just an incredible vibe. Huge thank you to Denise as well for helping me out!

I had an amazing stay! The staff were very friendly, the rooms were clean, and everything I needed was available. I would definitely recommend this place and would love to come back again!

An amazing hostel. Great facilities, brilliant amenities and fantastic custpmer service. One of the best hostels I’ve ever stayed in ,

The hostal is very cool and always found everything impecable. I had an issue since some other guests took the bed is was meant for me, staff couldn’t help a lot but were happy to reacomodate me and offer me a free drink in compensation. Even though not all staff were helpful or even nice, there were a couple of them that always treated us with a smile

Hostel is very well organized with a nice bar and restaurant.

Really enjoyed my stay at the hostel. The price is decent, you get one free drink at the bar and there is free food (cereals/oil/salt and cooked pasta in the evening). Everything was clean and modern. They offer events each day, so it’s easy to get in contact with other people staying at the hostel

This is my second time here and it has been just as great as I remembered. The staff are super friendly! The rooms are spacious and clean, they give you sheets and duvets, and the lockers are large.
The fact that they have a bar and breakfast for so little money is another bonus. But without a doubt, the best thing is the staff. Thanks, guys!

Awful location, but for me it’s worth it cause I prefer the pool and sunbathing over sight seeing. However there’s another hostel closer to city with a pool I went in for a view and it is just as good I think

It was amazing. The only thing that I would prefer would be staying in a different floor. I’m an early sleeper and stayed in the bedroom near the recietion.

Wow!! What an amazing hostel. This is probably the best hostel i have ever stayed in and i have stayed in lots! They have free pasta everyday, a free welcome drink, they offer lots of free activities everyday. The kitchen is great, they have a laundry, easy luggage storage, a roof top pool. I can’t express enough how great the place was! Rooms and bathrooms were clean. Staying at a few other yellow squares this trip we will see how they compare to Yellow Squares Florence.

Very cool atmosphere and I liked the activities they lined up, it was easy to meet others through the hostel. The bar was well equipped and had relatively fast service. Staff was friendly and tried to be helpful as possible. Some problems for me were that our room flooded the first night because the shower drain didn’t work properly. Then when I tried to get a private room for one night because of my conserns with a sick roommate the staff said they could not look this up in their system and encouraged me to try their website, something which seems very odd to me. The washers were also oddly small, which became annoying for many people I spoke with because of the price (which could be seen as fair for the area).
Overall a positive experience, but I am quite annoyed that now two days later I am stuck at home with influensa which could have been avoided.

overall very good!

Very cool place to stay with a lot of chances to meet new people!

Monica, Ala, Luca and everybody make you feel at home. It feels like being in a friend’s living room at a party. Kisses and hugs ❤️❤️

Everything was okay, i loved the curtain on the bed and i like that you provide soap and shampoo. Although the water pressure on the shower head is really weak.

Met great people, and the staff was amazing

Thanks for the amazing host. I just loved how kind the staff were, how pretty the rooms are and what a nice social hostel it was! For me it was one of the best hostel I ever stayed at! Thanks!

I spent 2 nights in YellowSquare Hostel Florence and had such a good time. The staff is very nice and young, there’s so many people to meet from all around the world. There are activities organised every night to give us the opportunity to make new friends and the common areas are super well equipped: a big outdoors common area with loads of chairs and tables, a pingpong table and a foosball table; a nice indoors area with loads of boarding games to use and share; a big bar with multiple drinks options and nice discounts; a swimming pool on the rooftop; a zen garden… To me, YellowSquare Hostel captured everything that’s important to me when travelling. When I go to a hostel, I expect being greeted with loads of possibilties to meet people whilst still having a nice and clean private space. I was not disappointed. My only critique would be about the location, which I think is a bit far from the city centre – compared to other hostels, and too close to a huge road and railway. When we sit in the outdoors area, it can get pretty noisy which is not very relaxing. I understand these are the cons of being in a city and surely, the location of the hostel, allows the room prices to be lower than if it was in the city centre.
Appart from that, I know that I’ll be able to choose YellowSquare Hostel when going to other cities and be guaranteed to have a good time.

Very nice team!
Perfect location!
Very clean room!

The hostel had a lot to provide its guests with. The space is clean, friendly, modern. There were lots of activities available for guests, and the staff were very helpful. Air conditioning worked super well, and the rooms were pretty quiet. I used ear plugs which helped a lot. Curtains were already put on the beds, and beds themselves were comfortable. I would definitely stay here again.

I enjoyed my stay in Florence, everything was good there.
