Big Bertha the drill

The big construction outside did not disturb our sleep. We got a double room that were bigger than aspected. Really nice room with good air conditioning. Big construction on the street outside was not a hassle for us. Some small problem with the toilet but it was fixed directly by the staff. Hands down for the nice staff. God value for the money.

This is a nice hidden hostal that is close to some major attractions. Jack from the front desk was very welcoming and friendly on my arrival . The room was very clean and so was the shared bathroom, although it would have been nice to have a few more shared bathrooms available. Overall, would recommend this place for the price and cleanliness.

Friendly staff and centrally located

Very friendly people but the conditions are very basic for the price we paid. The area nearby is residential but still very noisy at night with locals going out and shouting in the street at 2am.

Simple, but clean and friendly

The staff at Apolo was wonderful. They were very helpful and friendly. The room has the essentials and nothing more, but it is clean and comfortable. My only complaint,and it’s not even a complain because it’s not their fault, is that the first floor and stairs of the building were they are located are a bit smelly. Just take the elevator and avoid the stairs.

We were very pleased with our large open room. It was very clean, great furnishings and not what I expected for a hostel. There is major construction infront (Aug 2025) which did not allow taxi drop offs but a short walk from Parallel Street. Staff were very friendly, extremely helpful. Short walk to the metro (3-4 minutes) Would highly recommend if looking for a budget friendly option.

Emplacement !!!

Emplacement idéal, à un coin de rue de la station de métro. Quartier Gothique, Rambla, tout est très accessible à pied. Nous avions loué la chambre double avec salle de bain privée, la chambre est de petite taille mais c’était parfait pour nous.

We booked a room for two single beds, and our room had enough space (1 double and 2 twins) so we enjoyed it. The pantry was a bit far at the end of the corridor but it was good we could use the microwave and electric kettles. The reception staff often changed, but they were helpful with everything that was needed. The location was nice, with all good places to eat, but there were lots of constructions going on and you sometimes suffer with lots of luggage. Overall it was a pleasant stay.
