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.

New, near tram to the airport.

(For YellowBox Florence) Room was very modern and comfortably spacious. The staff were welcoming and easy to get along with. The activities that they provide during your stay is what makes it a 10/10. Meeting people is not my strong point but this provided me with a beautiful opportunity to meet a range of different people from all over which was great.

Staff are all very friendly and helpful. Place is extremely clean and modern. Beds are great because they come with an electronic safe and shelf that allows you to put your electronics or possessions on within close reach. The atmosphere is social, should you choose to partake. The only thing that’s missing is laundry facilities. Location is decent enough. About a 20 minute what to the train station/city centre.

Absolutely unprofessional behavior from the manager and receptionist!

20

Unprofessional behavior!
Right now I’m in the hostel. I have booked a bed for 10 nights. The receptionist told me that she “will not allow” me to stay in my room since I “have to” change the room!!! So I should check out at 10 am and stay in the lobby until 3 pm that I could check in for the new room!!! I have booked a bed for 10 nights and changing room doesn’t make sense. If it was changing room because of the extension it would make sense.

I’m adding this today (12th of January 2023). Another unprofessional behavior! I’m so sorry for this management! I asked the receptionist to extend my stay at the hostel and they told me we cannot do this. So I was supposed that I maybe can book a bed online but the receptionist told me that they will reject my booking. I have reported this absolute unprofessional behavior to the headquarter and I hope they will respond me about the reason! Definitely I should report this to the council. It’s so weird!!!

I have written this on the google review as well and I know that you don’t care! I know it because I sent an email to the headquarters and I didn’t get any response! So I’m so sorry for the management in the Florence branch!

Vibrant colours, great design, a fun-looking social programme and lovely staff – this hostel was a real treat to stay in. Would definitely stay here again. It’s nice to be a little outside the centre of Florence, as it’s a little more relaxed- and in a good little neighbourhood with all the local shops and eateries you need.

Thanks

Great experience overall: I had a comfortable stay without any problems, enjoyed the services and some of the organized events, and got to meet some interesting fellow travelers, so I would stay YellowSquare definitely added something positive to my Florence trip and memories.

Nice but too expensive

I would have paid 20 instead of 30 but the overall atmosphere was really cool ! Same for the cocktails, although we had discounts I feel like 6,80 for a cocktail was a lot.
Also I had a lock on me which was nice but maybe it could be cool to warn the guests that a lock is required for the lockers, I don’t remember seeing it on my booking confirmation or anything. Thank you for everything though!!!

So surprised to see such a beautiful building as a hostel.
Location was great, 5 min walk to the tram or 20 minute walk in to town which I felt safe to do as a female traveller.
The accommodation felt new and had everything to make your stay comfortable. Personal safes a reading light and a socket inside your bunk space, dedicated lockers. Plenty pegs and hangers for storing things. Lots of mirrors and the ensuite was great incorporating a double sink so the space could be shared with other lodgers.
My key card kept needing reset so that was a bit inconvenient

I was in room 108. The shower in the bathroom did not have proper pressure. Water was coming out at very low pressure. Just because the bathroom door open outwards, the water was coming out to the room.
Otherwise good room space , bed and staff.

First time in a hostel experience was fantastic thanks to those at YellowSquare Florence. An extremely friendly staff greeted us at the door on our way in and out; we arrived to a clean and tidy space and room with staff around 24/7 to help with all of our needs.

The staff was amazing and the place was great for our students. It was tough at first not having heat in the afternoons but the team then made sure I did. Thanks so much!!!
I wish we would have been there for the viewing of the final world cup game! I bet it was amazing!

Could’t sleep for 6 days – light sleepers avoid

This is a very noisy hostel. Don’t go there for sleep. Some people are there long term and are treating the rooms as if they lived alone. Having chats or work conversations and lights on way past 1am or more, then going through their lockers till 6am. At 6am traffic starts and the noisy people finally get to bed and starts snoring, then people start getting up. They also have a club and a bar which you can hear from your room and there are people having loud chats in the garden until early hours of the morning. I was wearing earplugs during my whole stay and could still hear all this commotion. I complained to one of the people at reception and was told : ‘it’s a party hostel’ as a lousy excuse.

I really enjoy my time at your hostel, the staff was super nice and helpful. The room looked really nice and the others who stayed there were super open.
I loved the free beer ticket we got after checking in, I feel like that that encourages you to go to the bar in the hostel at the evening and socials with all the other people.

Yellowsquare is a great place to stay if you like partying, making friends from all over the world and have clean dorms with private bathroom. There are still things to improve, the quality of activities and the dissociation of different places : party, chill, sleep ect.
