    Nothing major but curtains on the beds would be amazzzing

    For my first hostel, Yellowsquare Florence exceeded my expectations. The facilities were great and very clean - I especially enjoyed the rooftop pool, that was a massive bonus! They also have group activities on every night, which helps mingling and meeting new people which is perfect when solo travelling, as I was. Would highly recommend Yellowsquare Florence!!

    Much too expensive for a hostel, I thought. Curtains for the bunk beds would have been great, and my feet stuck out a bit (but i'm tall).

    very modern and well kept, bathrooms entirely ok

    Modern hostel for young people, room facilities new, quite sufficient. Every evening in the lobby visitors meeting over a bowl of pasta, special prices on drinks. Also some daytime activities on offer (I didn't take advantage), bar/disco in the basement (I wasn't there). Nice pool seating on the roof, the pool was already in use at the time of my visit but it was still too cold to swim. I like the location, walking distance to downtown about 17 minutes, but it's only 3 tram stops (tram connecting the city to the airport). I used the luggage storage after checking out, picked up my backpack in the locker on the way out of town and hopped on the next tram to the airport.

    Nothing. Dont forget to bring your own locks

    Everything! Garden, bar, rooftop pool, inside area. Dormitories, drinks.. Definetely more than a hostel. It is quite big, everything you need, they have. Dormitories are clean, you can socialize very easily, tram station is only 4 min walk but you can also walk city centre within 20 mins max.

    More washing machines would be a bonus. And the bathroom floor was often very wet from the shower so better sealing from within the shower would be good or provide extra floor towels/bath mats to clean it up

    The sockets were designed to be compatible with my laptop charger but the grounding clips on the sides were mangled and prevented it from being plugged in. Had to charge with the socket next to the little table

    Very nice environment

    1. The sheets were fine but the blankets were a bit questionable. 2. The kitchen exhaust doesn’t seem to work. If it does, it should be explained how to operate it. Though the kitchen supply is exceptional, the air quality can be improved. I don’t mean AC but the toxic air exhaust.

    The safe and lockers combination was a great relief. I think this differentiates Yellow Square chains from others, placing them at higher level.

    The location was a bit annoying to walk to from the city center as there are some weird crossroads on the way. However, train stops are very close.

    I liked the vibe of the property. Lots of activities, free beverage voucher at the hostel's bar, nice and clean rooms. Very friendly staff.

    The price is quite expensive. Also, I thought they could have provided shower towels instead of renting for 1 euro.

    Room was big, it was nice and modern and clean, staff was really nice, they had a comunal kitchen and activities everyday like yoga class, gelato tour and karaoke nights. They also had lockers to leave the suitcase/bags.

    Everything is super comfortable, the beds are nice and clean.And it’s always a benefit to have the pool on the top of the building 😊It’s the best place if you are solo traveling. You can meet a lot of new friends and Yellow Square will help you with this,they are doing a lot of different entertainment in the evening. One of one I’ve attended and it was PERFECTO

    The ladder to the upper bed is made of metal. And it hurts my feet when climbing up. Plus the whole bed frame is made of metal - any movement and there is a loud sound. Well, there are no curtains. Sew them)))

    The pool is awesome!
