Apolo - Can Pastilla, Spain     

Having read the existing reviews of this hotel, I approached the trip with a little trepidation. However, I needn't have worried. The hotel is spotlessly clean and we found the staff to be extremely helpful and friendly. We arrived late morning and were given our room immediately. We had a lovely view of Palma from our balcony and the hotel is 2 minutes from the beach, the bus stop and some excellent restaurants. Yes, it is close to the airport and there is some noise during the day, but it that also makes it convenient for the airport. The guests were a mix of german, spanish, english and russian and we were all treated equally courteously by the staff. If you want to stay in a hotel where all the guests are Brits I suggest Blackpool not Mallorca!

I would strongly recommend English people to avoid this hotel, German guests were treated very well and yet I got a wave of the hand in my face as I tried to ask for the second time that the leaky sink was fixed as the bathroom was flooding, this was after having to ask for the room to be cleaned on arrival due to thick dust everywhere and most surfaces covered with someone elses hair, and cracked tiles and dirty grouting. German guests were obviously treated with more courtesy to the point of making me feel uncomfortable. The food was poor,repetetive and cheap quality, meat in various shades of grey. no fresh vegetables yet they had (yellowing) cabbages and pineapples as decoration. The 'entertainment' was last up to dated about 25 years ago, only the elderly felt it worthwhile staying for ! The airport is really close and it should be made much clearer to potential guests just how noisy the planes can be at all hours. Nearby bars now cater more towards Germans, one was advertising for waitresses requiring fluent Spanish and German but only basic English. The only good point I can think of is location and ease to take a bus to Palma and taxi rate to the airport.
