YellowSquare Reviews: Milan

Located in the heart of the Porta Romana district, YellowSquare Milan offers female-only dorms, shared dorms, and private ensuite rooms. Instead of a formal office, we have The Baretto, a laptop-friendly space where you can work, study, and eat during the day before it turns into an aperitivo and social meeting spot. Salone14 is our events hub in Milan, it's a local 'it-spot' where travelers and locals meet for live music, DJ sets, stand-up comedy, karaoke, and creative projects, it's more like a nightlife without leaving the hostel.

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.

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.

Very good stay with great atmosphere

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.

Hostels are no longer sh***y flop-houses

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!

My first bed bug bites

/100

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.

The room and the bathroom were absolutely disgusting. And I entered the room just after the “”cleaning service”””. Then I think is genial to use metal bed frames that are so noisy everytime you touch them! Bad bad experience

Overall I enjoyed my stay at the yellowsquare milan!
The staff was super kind, chill and helpful. The girls in my room was not so communicating, which is fine, I guess, but I would’ve loved some more:)
The activities in the hostel though are really helping to connect to people!
Nice accommodations, loved the laundromat!!!
My only problem with the place is that it’s super far from the city center and the airport.. so take that into consideration

Perfect sociable short stay in Milan

90
/100

Yellowsquare hostel Milan was very welcoming and helpful on arrival, helped to my room and given a free drinks voucher for the bar. There was a sociable bar with board / drinking games, a comunal kitchen, a courtyard area and a few other rooms I hadn’t explored. Lots of rooms for guests meaning there were lots of solo travellers to make friends with especially at the social events held in the evenings and ran by the hostels volunteers.
Wish the accommodation was a little closer to the centre but it’s perfect if you’re ok to take the metro!

It was a positive experience, friendly staff, close to the metro station, clean rooms …

I spent one night at Yellowsquare because my niece was staying there. I was pleasantly surprised by the size of the room (private single room) and the comfort of it. Sheets and towels are provided. It’s comparable to a 3-star hotel and more reasonably priced. The hostel is located in a quiet, residential neighborhood just a few minutes’ walk from metro and tram stops. They organize lots of social events, tour and other activities. Staff are extremely friendly and helpful.

The hostel was fine in terms of cleanliness, facilities, and customer service. I arrived quite late and the bar area was busy, but I was greeted and checked in immediately. I shared a dorm with 3 other women and the room was very clean and so was the bathroom, and shampoo, towels, handwashing, and a hairdryer etc. were all available. There was a lack of secure storage in the room, but there is secure storage in the basement which I used when exploring the city. Great location too.

a warm, welcoming hostel nestled in a neighbourhood just outside of milan

/100

I thought the staff were super accommodating and nice, and the bar/cafe downstairs has pretty good prices. i wished there was more common spaces indoors, but the kitchen was super great and well-equipped! the rooms are pretty small but shower and bathroom is good and clean. My only complaint would be that the duvet is the thickness of a paper towel, and so I was so cold at night.

Yellow square was amazing , I did my first ever solo trip and decided to stay in yellow square . After a long day of exploring it was so comfortable to come in , have a chat with people around the world , board games , dinner etc. I was worried about hostel stays before my travel but yellow square made it a memory . I will definitely come back

We only stayed one night at YellowSquare, but really wish we could have spent more! The place is really amazing, wether it comes to the dorms or the plenty of common spaces – we genuinely kept being surprised to find new ones, like the Chapel downstairs and everything, or the helpfulness and good mood of the staff. We also took part in the social activities (the mixology class and the quiz night), and instantly clicked with a dozen of people, both thanks to the activities as ice-breaker, and the atmosphere of the Piazetta and Baretto, that really helped feeling comfortable and open to meet other travelers!

Cool hostel, a bit noisy

70
/100

The hostel is located about 30 minutes from the most famous sights (cathedral, galleries). There are lots of facilities and activities at the hostel, which is great. The biggest drawbacks were the noise and the cleanliness of the room. We were woken up several times during the night by people shouting in the corridor or doors slamming. The room was full of dust, which meant all our luggage was dirty. Recommended for those who can cope with a bit of noise and don’t mind a bit of dust!

it was ok

/100

it was OK, my first night I had a bump in my mattress but I got from the airport very late so I just handled that in the morning, in the morning i went for a tour to Como lake( which by the way was amazing with Franchesco from hostel QUO) when I told them if they can replace it they said no problem but when I got back to the room I saw they didn’t, so only at the second time I asked they came with me to handle it. the second night, around 9 in the morning someone was drilling extremely hard because they fixed something in the outside bar.
beside that everything was OK it is a cool hostel, good vibes and nice facilities for the price:)
