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..

I really enjoyed my stay at this hostel. Check-in and check-out was fast and easy, it’s super close to Rome ztermini train station, and they have a bunch of events organized for people to attend. The bar across the street was really fun and they did a good job engaging people to meet and have a good time. Water station by reception was a god send lol.

What kept this from being a 10/10: I tried reaching out a few days before arrival to get tips on the best route to get there from another city and never got a response. Pillows could be a bit bigger/thicker for better comfort and the AC could be a bit stronger.

Overall, we had a lot of fun and would stay here again.

My stay at the yellowsquare was really Nice. It was my first solo travel, and i felt so safe. Thanks to the yellow bar and the sweet staff it was so easy to meet new people. The rooms were good as well, cleaned everyday and had what was needed.

This was a great hostel. It is very much an energetic place with a party atmosphere. However, it can be what you want it to be. I found it peaceful and fine to sleep when I wasn’t wanting to have a late night in the bar, but equally when I did have more of a night out it certainly delivered. The daily activities on offer are great, and the FREE pasta every night was one of the best things. Really glad I chose to stay here, as I met some amazing people in my dorm room of whom I explored Rome with.

Couldn’t recommend more! Rooms were airconed and very clean, the staff were lovely and the check in process was very easy. YellowSquare is very close to two metro stops and is very conveniently located next to supermarkets and cafes.

The staff we very helpful whenever you needed them, very sympathetic. The activities were fun, the room was clean. Bed was comfortable. The bar across made it easier to meet with people. And the location was great too, only a few minutes walking distance from the train station! really appreciate the free earplugs and tampons.

We had the “Superior” Private Room. Superior was only the price. The only difference to the standard is the small balcony which is definitely not worth the money. The bathroom wasn´t properly cleaned when we arrived (black hairs on the floor). The small room had only one little chair and a small table. It is forbidden to bring your own beer (they like to sell it on their own bar). After we left I realized I forgot my cap in the room and gave them a call. They told me they found the cap and I should give them a detailed description or send them a photo. I asked I f they would send me the cap if i do so. The answer: “This is not a service we provide”. The only thing they are interested in is obviously that you leave your money at the place. The nights were noisy. When the party noise stopped around 5´clock in the morning the noise oft the city cleaning service emptying the glass containers began.

The place has a good location and a great staff, but the bed and bathroom was very unconfortable

The place has a good location, the staff is very friendly and help you a lot. But the bed in rooms are very uncomfortable, and the bathroom was not working good. You have to push several times to get water, but this no one knows and you can imagine this sharing the toilet with 8 people! 😓

The community and facilities were great! The bar is always lovely, with different activities nearly every night. It was super easy to meet new people. The free pasta for guests was amazing! Only draw back was the lockers felt a bit small in the rooms.

The staff were super helpful and made me feel right at home. I’m not sure if all hostels have an iron, but they did, and it really helped me out. It is located near Termini station so it is easy access to airport.

My stay was really pleasant. I had the chance to meet other solo travellers in both hostel and the bar-restaurant right in front of it. What I didn’t like was the mattress, quite uncomfortable and almost without filling in the middle part. Also, there was no proper curtain to get a bit of privacy in the bunker bed. If you wanted, you had to use the sheet of the mattress.

First of all the place is situated very close to the train station with is really good makes commute easy. Alot of affordable restaurants around. They also provide free pasta every day between 6-8. The room was cleaned every day which was a good thing.
Coming to the problems. The rooms were way smaller in real life when you see it personally. Every morning when i had a shower the water was ice cold and when i informed the guy at the reception he said we cant do anything about it as its the buildings problem so please manage. Which was very rude of him. Also i saw people checking in got a toad bag which was selectively not given to me which i dont know why. There were lockers for post/pre checkout to deposit luggage and use for a euro a day. As they didnt have the locker to fit my bag they just kept it with them for free which was very confusing and nonuniform treatment.
Overall the experience did not do justice to the price i paid for a dome room. I worked suggest to travel in pairs in Rome and book a room in a hotel or a hostel.
If you just need to drink and party yes this is the place.

Unfortunately, our stay was really uncomfortable and not suitable for somebody with accessibility needs. I was travelling with my mother (60s), and she is quite short and suffers from movement limitations and chronic pain. On the first day she took a nap on one of the single beds, which was not anchored in anyway and slid away from the wall as she was trying to get out of bed, causing her to fall between the bed and window, leading to a giant bump on her head, dizziness and confusion for days (we were only in Dublin for 5 days). This impacted the rest of her trip entirely. She also struggled with the height of the bed to get in and out of it, there was no railing and there was not enough space between between beds to support getting in and out without difficultly. The rooms are TINY. the cupboards were too high for her to access things and nothing was labelled, making it difficult for her to remember where to look with her suffering memory.

Door way into the washroom was not wide enough, and space between front door and washroom door was dismal and made it difficult to move any support equipment into the room/bathroom.

When I asked the front desk if there was a way to secure the bed, they said it wasn’t possible and told me they could give my mom ice. It took me asking more than 5 times and offering solutions before they said they could look into options but that we would have to wait until the next day so they could call in maintenance. There was no follow up, no remediation (ie, like a complimentary meal or breakfast or even just a soda), literally didn’t even ask how things were going in any capacity. And there was also no option to be reimbursed for our remaining unused nights so that we could book a hotel that was suitable for my mothers needs.

Just really disappointing.

This hostel was perfect. I was looking for a place that was in a central location that was easy to navigate from, this hostel fit the bill exactly. It’s close enough to Roma Termini that I was able to travel around Rome (and elsewhere) very easily. I was a little concerned about the noise levels as the bar is across the road but honestly you can barely hear the music from the rooms.
