The hostel was very secure and felt safe. Everything was reasonably clean other than the bathrooms which were quite dirty and needed a good clean. It wasn’t a particularly social hostel but the overall vibes were good. The location was decent, not too far of a walk from most things and the bar across the street was a fun place to end the night.

I stayed in a women only dorm and it was super great, clean, spacious, it had everything you need. The staff from the hostel was really nice as well! The Yellow Bar was also a nice experience and I met many people there. Yet, one guy from the staff, Guzman, was drunk and was definitely taking advantage of his staff position (forcing people to drink for instance), which made me and my friends a bit uncomfortable.

The hostel was really clean and the vibe was good. Had heaps of fun events and location was great! My issue was that unfortunately someone working at reception checked in a guest under my name as both our first names were the same. This meant that I actually had to pay extra than what I expected. I originally booked the 6 bed female dorm and then had to pay extra for the 4 bed female dorm. Not just that happened but also my first night there, I was alone in the dorm and around 2:30-3:00am someone comes in and sleeps on the bed above me. I don’t understand how they got in and this just made me a little uncomfortable. I’m guessing this person couldn’t sleep in their room that night and the reception gave a key to my dorm. I would rather have been woken up and told that someone was going to sleep in the room for the night.

Great hostel full of lovely people

The room was really spacious with very comfy beds, the added curtain provided privacy and space. Through the hostel run events managed to meet lovely people that we then met up with multiple times. The hostel was extremely helpful printing off train tickets for us and help with laundry. Great location too can walk into town or catch the bus or metro from close by.

I really enjoyed this hostel. It was clean, both the rooms and the bathrooms are in good conditions. The beds all have curtains that give you much appreciated privacy when sharing a space… the hostel staff is kind, funny and helpful. The Yellow bar is a great vibe with good drinks and fair prices. The food is also really good. I highly recommend going for the free pasta from 18:30 – 20:00. You can’t enter the building without a key card or a staff member letting you in, so security is also good.

YellowSquare was amazing

YellowSquare Rome made our trip unforgettable. Traveling with my best friend, I felt completely safe and comfortable letting loose and soaking in the experience, something I didn’t expect to feel so easily in a foreign country. The setup of the hostel is brilliant: social, vibrant, and welcoming without ever feeling chaotic or unsafe. The rooms were clean, the vibe was electric, and every space felt thoughtfully designed.

Special shoutout to the bar staff, they made our nights feel like events of their own. Friendly, fun, and full of great recommendations (and drinks), they really elevated the entire experience. Between the atmosphere, the people we met, and the memories made, YellowSquare will forever hold a special place in my heart.

The hostel was good with a great vibe and heaps going on over at the bar with cheap drinks. However my room was extremely dirty with odd stains on the walls, mold in the bathroom and the shower curtain fell on my head. The staff also felt standoffish whenever i asked them where something was.

It could have been better

I’ve stayed in different hostels around the world and even though it looks very modern, the arrangement of the rooms and having 2 different buildings makes it difficult to connect with other travelers, which ot is important when you are solo traveling. Also the service was not great from the staff, they should be able to help you have a great experience in this place you are visiting and you know nothing about this place, they should be the experts to give you advise, in which their answer to me was I don’t know. Internet was more helpful than them.

Had a great time

I had a great time and i could work with no problem! the hostel is more like a hotel with shared bedrooms, because the spaces arente very sharable if youre a solo traveler, but it delivers! I liked the experience and the staff was always happy and very helpful. The kitchen was very very nice and the wifi was ok for the amount of people staying. Im happy overall

Best Hostel experience

This was my first hostel experience. I will always return to YellowSquare, this was the best experience I ever had. Nice hostel, very clean and neat. The people were super nice. The bar that comes with the hostel is 10/10 to meet new people. The bar is set in the sky for any other hostels now. 🙂

It’s a good place to stay , is near termini and you can walk from there in 3 minutes to the train station or 1 minute if you take a bus.

Great hostel

Staff helpful, room was clean, bed did feel like it slightly dipped but slept throughout the nights with no issues. Bathroom would sometimes smell – probably due to old building. Breakfast included is a must, my favourite part because it was filling and delicious and would get me to dinner. Room was spacious enough (4 female dorm). Communal areas were all clean.

Good location, poor room setup

The location was really good and convenient. The hostel also provides a range of events and discounts which is really nice. However the room itself was bad. The bathroom door handle fell off on the first tug. The receptionist was nice enough to help with it but this is well below expcetations for such an expensive room. The room had an ensuite bathroom which is good to have but it was so small that it was barely usable. The room itself was also quite small.

Best hostal I ever stay

in opinion so far I really like everything of staff starting with the reception and finishing with the bar. Everyone was giving really nice advice about what to do in Italy and day by day I was familiar with everything that was around me. I really love all the events they start around 6 to 8 all days. I also like the free pastas and nachos with a nice guacamole.

I loved this hostel since the beginning when I was wondering go to Rome and I definitely did a good choice! The structure of the hostel, atmosphere, staff, everything was perfect! And one thing is right, when I come back to Rome I’ll stay there again! The location is very strategic, near to Rome Termini Station, then to me was perfect to arrive easily there and go easily for the others place. The bar is a plus of the hostel and the rooms good and clean for a fair prices.

It was my first time in Rome, and it will be unforgettable thanks to the hostel! Staying in the yellow was my best decision. The location is great, right next to termini, the room was so clean and comfortable(always cool), the activities are fun and involving, the parties are epic, the staff is amazing, and the whole atmosphere is so great, that it makes you don’t want to leave that place, 10/10⭐️

My stay at Yellowsqaure Roma was FABULOUS! The room assigned to me was clean, spacious with the air conditioning that was working properly. the bathroom was of a decent size and clean.

The check in and check out process was quick and smooth..
I had some problem with my card payment but the staff at Yellowsqaure was very patient and helpful and they provided me with every possible solution and was very co-operative.

The Yellowsqaure Bar is an amazing place to hangout with fun activities and great parties. The staff at the bar always ensures that you have an awesome time..
