YellowSquare Reviews
YellowSquare is more than a hostel; it’s an international community designed for travelers who want to connect, work, and hang out. Across our locations in Italy and Greece, we provide female-only dorms, shared dorms, and private ensuite rooms, alongside working spaces and daily activities. Definitely not a boring hostel. From working over a coffee to evening events in our venues, we create a active atmosphere where locals and travelers meet and make friends. Every YellowSquare is a gateway to the city, focused on social vibes and the right place to meet people.
Amazing staff and facilities, perks. Great cleanliness for a hostel, stylish interior and overall very good value!
Good position, clean hostel.
Great place, safe, full of colour, confortable and cheap bar 🙂
I recommand going on the rooftop, it is everything :))
The hostel itself is fresh, clean and has all the facilities you could want and/or expect when it comes to having that european hostel experience.
My highlights are:
1. The short walk from the tram station (although the hostel is not central it is not remote)
2. The incorporated rooftop terrace, bar and kitchen with reasonable prices for bare sustenance and convenience
3. The daily room cleans and towel changes (private dorms)
The only fall back for us personally was the heavy, deafening bass on Friday and Saturday nights emanating from the club below us. Although the existence of the club is well publicised and the website even mentions requesting earplugs, i did not expect for the private 2 person dorm to be the room directly above the club. My suggestion would be that the large dorms be situated close to the club as they are the more likely to use it.
9/10
It was my first time staying in a hostel and i was so hesitant at first but then I loved my experience a lot! Everything was amazing from the activities, food, and ambiance. We had a different activity each day. Reception was open 24h and it felt like a safe environment
overall great experience
Our stay in Yellowsquare marked the end of our long trip. Before our stay, we were all ready to go home and our stay in our previous accomodation certainly did not help our experience. Yellowsquare felt like a “gift from god”. The room was affordable, clean, organised, and everything fell in place, the staff was friendly and efficient, the lobby and shared space was inviting, and the luggage room was convenient to say the least. If we ever Milan or Rome, we will definitely be staying at your accomodation. Thank you for hostpitality 😀
A very social atmosphere, conveniently located with friendly staff. The amenities were well maintained and clean. The common area had plenty of boardgames to break the ice with other travellers. Overall, a great stay and would not hesitate to return.
It was my second time at Yellow Square. Everything was great, staff cleanness, bed, bathroom. Loved it. Would stay again for sure
There is more need for cleaning at the rooms, the staff is the best about it, but the lack of clean sheets and towels is something that should be a must.
Nice and good service
I enjoyed the location and vibrant energy of the hostel. Great for solo travelers and groups.
I liked a lot the hostel, it had everything my friends and I needed. We felt comfortable and had fun.
This is much more like a hotel than hostel, with a communal room that people tend to work/study in rather than be social in. The nights organised often fell a bit flat. Staff were lovely, place was super super clean, and in a great location. My mates and I had a 4 room private but it was so small we couldn’t all stand up at the same time or we couldn’t move around, each bed had a power socket but in 2 of the beds they didn’t work.
Overall, everything was good (special thanks for the co-working space!) but there is some room for improvement:
– the bathroom door in the dorm was hard to close – it’d be a good idea to change the locker type
– the bathroom itself wasn’t in the best condition with its broken hangers and quite old renovation in general
– sleeping on the bad next to the door and the bathroom is quite annoying – maybe think about moving beds?
– WIFI didn’t work properly everywhere
– No duvet cover but only a bedsheet so you can’t tuck the blanket into it which is absolutely inconvenient
I have only good things to say. The rooms were cleaned every day. Everything was very well run. 9/10 only because there weren’t curtains on the bunks, but they would give you a sheet to use. Excellent customer service.
I think its much better than others similar places.
I was in a spacious 4 bed female room and it was super quiet and clean. Staff were super helpful and having the restaurant over the road was really convenient. Also was able to walk comfortably from termini
Yellowsquare was very clean, everyone was friendly and they do a lot to foster community. each room has a full bathroom to share which is a nice alternative to dorm-style showers.
Staff was really friendly and helpful. Room was comfortable and clean, met nice roommates. Most of all, it was safe.
The location is great and I like the big locker and safe box in the room. One thing that bothered me was the unstable wifi that kept disconnecting.
The staff are all very friendly and helpful. Very affordable with free breakfast and diner!
All staff were very helpful and there was always someone around to help. Everyone always had a smile on their face which meant that everyone felt very approachable. Lovely service! The general atmosphere was welcoming and safe. There were activities you could join if you felt like it but were also able to have a quiet night if that was what you wanted. The free pasta for dinner and drink voucher was also very generous and much appreciated. Obviously, this is not easy to implement but possibly having more than 2 of each, a dryer and washing machine, could better help the experience of visitors. Again we understand the reasons for light bedding and thin pillows however in winter when you are not able to turn up the heat it would be nice to be offered an extra blanket. A range of ages were visiting, even some families with kids. This was nice to see a lot of different people enjoying the space. There was also the opportunity to join activities in the night if you wanted to experience a bit more of a party atmosphere. Being right near the tram and very close to the train station made our stay even easier to visit Florence.
the staff was really friendly, the room was clean and tidy, and everything went well.
my only remark is that the towels should be changed more often.
It was clean and the staff were very kind
I loved it. The staff was so lovely and helpful. Rooms were clean & I met lovely people.
Clean hostel and friendly staff.
I recommand.
The hostel experience was amazing! The staff was very kind and supportive.
The rooms very clean and comfy
Super good place. It is great for cooking also with a lot of free food. Nice chill bar/outdoor area. Very very clean and safe.
We really liked staying in this hostel, it is the first one that we really felt it was worth staying. The location is perfect because you are away from the hustle and bustle and you can walk to the center without any problems, although the subway station is also very close. It is super clean, the food itself (breakfast, lunch, etc.) is delicious, and the atmosphere is super friendly and comfy. I would stay at any YellowSqaure Hostel again.
Had a fantastic stay here. It was my first time staying at a hostel, but from what I understand from my fellow guests the bar is set very high now. There is literally not one thing I can name wrong with the hostel or my stay there. Everything was very clean and tidy, staff was friendly, and every night there was a different fun activity. Ranging from karaoke night and game night to a drag queen show. But at any moment one could just take a seat with anyone or any group and instantly make new friends.
Although it was just one night that stayed, I wish it was more.. the place is so clean, organized, fun and the vibes are very nice.
The staff is fantastic and available all the time.
My only concern is that it felt cold at night in the room. Everything else in the room (bed, clean bathroom.. etc) is more than good!
I would love to come back for sure.
My experience at Yellowsquare was great. Statf was helpful, the atmosphere was engaging, and the vibe made people interact more. The only thing I would improve is making non-alcoholic options for activities.
Very good bed.quiet and convenient.
