YellowSquare Reviews: Milan

The staff was incredibly kind, perfect location, and the rooms and bed were pristine. One of the nicest hostels I’ve stayed at.

Clean bedrooms, easy checkin, comfortable bed, nice café and bar at reception, many activities, convenient kitchen. Staff available and helpful. Price was reasonable given the winter Olympic time.

This was a great stay with lovely staff and a super sociable environment. Made a bunch of great friends! Would recommend

It was a very clean property with enough space for storage and plenty of events for guests.

We stayed at Yellowsquare Milan for the Olympics for 1 night, and it was a great stay! Super lively and a lot going on and attentive staff. Great rooms with clean and nice bathrooms. Very close to metro as well which was ideal!

Yellow Square is an innovator in the youth hostel sector, offering, for example, a safe for each bed in the dormitories, daily entertainment, very friendly and professional staff, clean facilities, and a central location in Milan, close to the metro at Porta Romana and to the tram and within walking distance of the city center: Duomo.

It was the first hostel experience for me and i think i could not do better. I was a bit scared to come because took a room for 4 people and didn’t know anyone in the city. But on the way to the hotel met a restaurant trapezino, entered inside and was surprised by the vibe. Understood that the area was quite calm and that fun. In the hostel room had really amazing neighbours, made friends with one fo them. The staff was very helpful and effective, cool space, liked having the kitchen and it was a real bonus. Lots of activities for those who want. Cleaning every day and really good bed sheets. The bed space is small but its a hostel and the dortoir for 4 people. I really appreciate my stay and will definitely recommend it in future. Thank ytou!

Excellent location, very clean, everything was wonderful over our week there!

Hostel bed had bed bugs

Amazing experience. The staf was super nice and helpful overall, the people we met very nice as well and all the hostel activities end up boosting the connection between all hostellers.
The common areas such as the common kitchen were all super tidy and clean.
Felt very safe during the entire stay
Overall 10/10 experience, better than expected

Such a fun hostel with enough to keep you around on their premises. They have a very good bar and restaurant, a community kitchen where you can cook your meals or even hang out with people and their own events area. They had a very fun karaoke night on one of the days that we were there and the atmosphere was electric!
The rooms were really clean and the bathroom was well-maintained. However, the 4-bed private room that we booked was quite small. Barely any space to open up 2 suitcases on the floor and move around. But didn’t matter too much since we only used the room to get ready for the day and then sleep at the end.

not clean bathroom.

I liked the cleanliness and the vibes. The 2016 theme party was fun.
I want to mention Giovanni from the reception- he was very sweet and kind and he has a great vibe!

Very great place, very lively, clearly popular. The reception staff is super friendly and helpful. The cafe at the entrance is very crowded with people working, playing board games, the atmosphere is friendly and welcoming. Quite cozy as well. The bed was good, the room fairly silent (but then again, I am a heavy sleeper), bathroom and everything was clean and practical.

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

It has a cozy and lively atmosphere and the staff are very friendly. They helped me with everything, awss!

Clean rooms, nice staff, own bathroom, lots of activities, close to metro and only 20 min to main train station.

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.

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.

The room was clean.
Place is cozy.
Drinks are affordable.
Staff were friendly and helpful.

The staff were very helpful, and it was so fun meeting other people from all around the world.

I enjoyed this hostel, that’s exactly how it should be, it’s called cozy and lively, choose it if you wanna have fun

Best experience

This hostel was very welcoming and the staff was knowledgeable and friendly. There was some false advertising about all the opportunities offered, for example they have not had a yoga class in 1.5 years which I was looking forward to. The events they held were completely in Italian, so it was not as engaging for me since I do not speak the language.

Great location, clean and loved the bar.

I really enjoyed my stay. The atmosphere was great, the common areas are lively, and the staff is extremely friendly and helpful. Everything felt easy and relaxed.
The only downside was that my room had a bit of an unpleasant smell at times, and the locker door needed a bit of “trick” to close properly. Nothing major, but it’s why I rate it a 9 instead of a 10. Overall, a very good experience.

Best hostel I’ve ever stayed at. It was clean and modern. Fantastic kitchen facilities! Overall absolutely amazing.

Modern and updated, reasonably clean, friendly staff that care about their workplace and happy to assist their guests.
All in all this is a hostel targeted at young travelers but kind of on the verge of being a hotel.
Excellent!

Had a good stay, thank you

The staff were absolutely amazing! Incredibly kind and helpful during the whole stay!!

I stayed 2 Nights at Yellowsquare, it was perfect. I thought it might be nice to be closer to the train station so checked out OstelloBello but i was wrong. I saw the other review saying bed bug bites and thought it might just be a one time. They are so itchy and painful and now it’s 1am in Florence (trained from milan this morning) and I can’t sleep because of bed bug bites from OstelloBello. I want a refund.

The place is clean, the atmosphere is friendly, and the staff is professional and very helpful. I was really pleased with my stay here, even more so after trying another hostel afterwards. The difference was huge! This hostel is exceptionally well-run and truly takes care of its guests. Great job to everyone on the team!

All the people at the hostel were very nice to us. The room was amazing, and we really appreciated the 20% discount at the hostel’s bar.
Everything exceeded our expectations.

From the free goodies (like the tote bag and welcome drink) to the cleanliness of the rooms, the stay was very pleasant. The people at the front desk were super nice and helpful, and the events were amazing. It was so great that there was a party downstairs of the hostel and events like tote bag painting.

They denied items they supposed to be part of my pay room and the staff is rude abd not helpful
