YellowSquare Reviews: Florence

Had a wonderful time thanks to the people I met. I feel thats down to the social atmosphere that the team created.

Great that there is free Pasta! Good to have Safes, but the AC doesn’t work inside the rooms.

Our stay at the hostel was great. The staff was excellent, and the activities and environment were fun and perfect for meeting people.

So many good people great staff cleanses 10/10 and that’s a lot coming from me because I have severe ocd when it comes to hygiene just all veautiful

Great People and much fun
If u think about it
Just book it☝️

I got some allergic symptomes in my bed that became worst each night. According to my searches on Google, I had allergies about dust mites. It was my first time. It says on google that humid and hot rooms are places where dust mites go, in the mattress and the pillows. This was the case of my room, also with a bathroom with no fan. I asked to change de sheets and pillow, but it didn’t help. I didn’t sleep at all for my 3nd night. I had to go get some medication in the morning. But, other than that, I liked the pool and the view on top of the hostel. Staff was very nice and events were a grate way to meet other travellers. Breakfast was good too. Thanks for the vegererian options. Also the cooking class was nice. I would recommand!

I really appreciated the hostel : clean, nice, lots of things to do, lots of options…
Nice place 🙂

Everythibg was great: amazing people, amazing atmosphere, very clean and organised! Absolutely loved it!

Everything was set up well and kept clean and tidy. The social activities are great to meet other people in the hostel too.

I’d recommend 100%! Very clean and safe! I liked the people I was sharing the room with.

Overall great, safe, clean, and comfortable. Nice staff, okay location a small walk to the city or bus/ metro which is 10 minutes away

Great staff, great vibe and lots of fun – will be back

Thanks to Paulina and Nathalie! They’re the best!!

The price is right for the beauty of the premises, although the hostel is far from the center. The outdoor terrace and rooftop are great, although the noise from the big road below is unpleasant (but that’s how it is).

The common areas and rooms are pleasantly clean. On the other hand, the kitchen (especially the tables) is often dirty, but it’s the travelers who aren’t very respectful, it’s not the hostel’s fault.

I had a great experience at YellowSquare hostel! So nice environment! Good location! 2 minutes from a metro station that goes directly to the airport and the city center! Every night, they had a special event: karaoke, quiz, cook classes. They also have free pasta every night for dinner! I ate pesto, which was delicious!
Please be aware that they charge you a city fee. I had to pay 16€ for the 3 nights I spent there. There are also no towels in the rooms, and if you don’t label your food very carefully, they throw it away daily.
The terrace with the swimming pool is super cool!

The set-up of the hostel is Amazing. The reception is also a bar in a café-ish situation. There’s a swimmingpool at the rooftop. The beds are good. The overall vibe between people, I love the diversity in staff, they are open, helpful, sweet and they really made the hostel to be honest.

Best hostel I’ve been at! Great socializing, young crowd, always something to do!

This was the first hostel I ever stayed in as a solo traveller so I was very nervous when it came to talking to new people. But everyone was so lovely and friendly. All the staff were happy to help at all times. The bar was amazing for coffees and drinks. So incredibly clean and you get a good amount of privacy in your rooms. The girls I had in my room were some of the nicest girls I’ve met. Same to be said about all the other people I met too! Highly highly recommend. Will definitely be coming back, miss it too much x

Perfect hostel for young solo travelers. Easy to meet people. Good atmosphere

It was so clean and everybody were so nice and helping!
I loved it!

It’s perfect for young people, everyday events are great, employees are friendly. Only thing I’d change, in some way washing machine is too expensive and big (I’d like to wash things every 2-3 days, and it would be almost empty…), so it would be better to add some solution. Another point to improve is beep sound of safe, maybe it can be disabled? And dishes in the kitchen in some way dirty, but that more question to people who stay in hostel.

Anyway experience is great I’d recommend to all this place!

This is an honest review of my experience with Yellow Square Florence hostel. The hostel is very well organized and the staff is really sweet and helpful. The F&B is affordable and the venue has various amenities and community building activities. The only disadvantage is that it is located near the airport so you need to travel a good 40 mins to reach the center and explore.

Really nice hostel, both parents (52 years) and kids 18 (years) loved this place. Nice activites. Great restaurant and also the rooms where to eat your own food. Roof top pool with a great view.
We arrived with car and really appreciated the parking garage.

Facilities A1, Community A1 – can’t ask for more. Activities every night, free food, reasonably priced bar – the staff set the tone to this place.

YES

Good place to stay. Downstairs bar and common area is very nice and provides good atmosphere to meet people and make friends. Rooms are spacious but bathrooms are a bit cramped and could be cleaner. Roms have secure lockers to store belongings. Staff are very friendly.

Yellow square in Florence was very welcoming. It was a great relaxed and friendly environment for solo travels and being able to talk to new people. I loved the activities they had set up every day and night, e.g run club, drinking games, getting to know people activities. The hostel itself was clean and organized. Would definitely recommend!

Immediately, staff was kind. They seem to enjoy each other and have fun, and you can feel it.
The common spaces are inviting, fun, and social. A space that feels dedicated to meeting new cool people.
Rooms are clean and well maintained daily.
Bar is stocked and drinks are yummy and very reasonably priced.
I would strongly recommend to anyone who wants to have a great time travelling.

I loved my overall experience. The cleaning staff would clean our dorm everyday punctually. The washrooms were equipped with all necessities and I specifically liked that they had a hand held water bidet. The rooms were also sufficiently sound proof to prevent parties from bothering you. There are two things which can be improved though . Firstly, there should be a mat on the bathroom entrance to prevent the whole room from getting wet and dirty (because the washbasin was v narrow which caused water to collect on the bathroom floor) and secondly, I wish the staff could also help with navigating the city. For example I could not figure out the regional train system and where my trenatilia pass works but the staff said they didn’t know either. I also noticed that the pamphlets didn’t have a lot of info.

I first met Yellow Square in Florence and came to Rome today and no hesitation I booked my place from Yellow House again, from staff to the rooms and the place itself everything was amazing. You’re doing an amazing job!

Thank you for all your offers and help. I enjoyed the stay

Yellowsquare offered an amazing stay! I became friends with all of the girls in my room and the hostel definetly offered many events to make sure everyone had the opportunity to get to know each other.

The staff made the place buzz every day with their events, the hostel itself was clean and safe too. The free pasta every night was good and brought everyone together. Beds were comfy and showers hot! Everyone was super respectful of privacy, one thing is to bring your own lock for your locker, it doesn’t come with a built on lock/code.

It is very well located, the hostel is very nice, clean. The staff is good. they make you feel welcome. they have many activities you can do with them,

Very nice rooms, lamp, socket and shelf above the bed, own toilet and bathroom, big lockers, own safe for every bed, free pasta every day, free welcome drink, rooftop pool with chairs and bar (I guess in summer), very nice and helpful staff, 15 min to the station. You can also get a second bedsheet as a curtain for your bed.

The best hostel place i have ever been to! beds are super comfy, stuff amazing, free welcoming drink and meal, love the people :))

My promo didn’t work at all and the price I paid on site was inconsistent (raised twice). Booked through link from email of you.

Fantastic hostel, good vibes and lots of activities organised by the team! Would 100% recommend this hostel to anyone coming to Florence!! Loved it!

In my experience, the hostel has a welcoming culture. The activities offered, the facilities, and the friendliness of its staff are designed to make you feel comfortable from the beginning. Thank you for your kindness! I will definitely look for you in other cities.

It was an amazing experience staying there, the rooms and beds were clean, the staff could speak well English and we’re super friendly. Also they had events every night which made this stay even more fun!
