“Hostal Apolo strikes me as a smart choice, not just for its proximity to Parallel station and nearby supermarkets, but for the genuine care evident in its renovated rooms and services like free luggage storage. The provision of in-room fridges, safes, and even balconies, combined with the spotless cleaning, points to a commitment to guest comfort. This hostal seems to prioritize a secure and comfortable experience, which, in my view, makes it a reliable base for exploring Barcelona.”
