For many visitors, the sauna is not just a place for relaxation, but a social hub where friendships are formed and old acquaintances are reunited.

Reviews
Visitors to the Apollo City Sauna often describe their experiences as pleasant, albeit with a nostalgic touch. Many highlight the friendly atmosphere and the helpfulness of the staff. However, some also mention that the place is a bit dated and that the clientele primarily consists of an older generation.
