YellowSquare Rome

The kind of hostel you’d imagine in a teen backpacking movie: a comically small elevator that chitters up through the middle of a stairwell (it’s often faster to walk), unremarkable apartments-turned-rooms, and a cafe/bar across the street that serves free spaghetti dinners to guests, meaning every twentysomething packed inside YellowSquare packs inside (and outside) the bar each night at 7 pm. Remarkably charming in a 9-star-on-HostelWorld kind of way.
