My friend booked hostel by his name for us (2 beds). Can I use that document for a Schengen visa application?

score:2

You're expected to include evidence of accommodations for your entire trip, so the easiest resolution would be for your friend to have your name added to the reservations.

If that is not possible, you might follow the guidance in its VFS Global checklist (although Italy is not part of your itinerary):

Proof of accommodation for the entire stay in the Schengen area. All bookings must be made in the applicant’s name, otherwise the person who made the booking needs to produce a written statement in English (dated, signed and accompanied by PhotoID) to confirm that the applicant is covered in the bookings provided.

It's not uncommon for one person to book shared accommodations, as you did for the two of you. However, should one not be issued a visa, the other would have a problem.
