    Our stay at The Cubana was fantastic from start to finish. The room was beautifully decorated and spotlessly clean. We loved the added bonus of having a mini bar in the room. The pool area was so relaxing and we enjoyed the convenience of the coffee van in the morning. We felt completely welcomed and the customer service was top-notch. I highly recommend this hotel.

    We had an amazing experience staying at this luxurious hotel. The rooms have been recently renovated to a high standard and they provide everything we needed for our comfortable stay. The manager was extremely accommodating and went out of his way to ensure all our needs were met. We were even allowed to park our large trailer on-site, which provided us with great security. Our room, number 7, was exceptionally spacious and beautifully decorated. We absolutely loved it!

    We highly recommend this hotel to families.

    I had an amazing stay at this hotel! The staff were incredibly friendly and accommodating, always willing to help with any requests. The newly renovated rooms were bright and comfortable, with the most comfortable bed I've ever slept on. The room was also spotlessly clean, the cleanest I have ever experienced. I loved that there was a mini bar in the room and the shower was great. The hotel also had bikes available for guests to borrow, which was a nice touch. The location was ideal, within walking distance to restaurants and shops. the hotel provided great value for money and I will definitely stay here again on my next visit to this city.

    Nothing that I didn't like.

    The complementary bikes offered by the hotel made it easy to explore the surrounding area. The coffee van stationed in front of the hotel was a real highlight, serving delicious coffee and breakfast items. The hotel's location was convenient for my business trip, with several shops and restaurants within walking distance.

    The room I stayed in had a strong odor of smoke that made it difficult to breathe and sleep comfortably. While the bed was comfortable, the smell was overwhelming and persisted despite attempts to mitigate it.

    The location of this motel is superb, with everything you need close by. The rooms are comfortable and stylish, with a retro feel that adds to the charm. The staff are friendly and welcoming, making your stay enjoyable from start to finish. The pool area is inviting and perfect for relaxing. Plus, the motel offers modern amenities like Smart TVs, ensuring you have everything you need for a comfortable stay.

    There was one negative aspect that disappointed us. The internet browsing app on the TV had inappropriate content from a previous guest, which made us uncomfortable and concerned about the cleanliness of the room.

    The Cubana in Ballina was great value for money with modern and spacious rooms, a comfortable bed, and a fantastic pool area. The motel is conveniently located within walking distance to restaurants and the staff were friendly and helpful.

    The breakfast selection could be improved with more variety and options to choose from.

    The Cubana Motel in Ballina was a comfortable and delightful stay. The property was clean and newly renovated with a beautiful design that reminded me of exotic South America. The rooms were spacious and well-equipped with a nice bed and good TV. I appreciated the ample parking available and the excellent cafe/coffee van on-site. The location was fantastic, especially with the convenience of push bikes available for hire at no extra cost. The pool area was lovely, and the BBQ and grassed area provided a great spot for family gatherings. a great experience.

    Cannot find any fault.

    The rooms were modern, comfortable, and spacious, with a lot of natural light. The bed was ultra comfortable, and the bathroom was clean and modern with a good shower. The staff went above and beyond to make our stay enjoyable, offering an upgrade and complimentary washing after our unfortunate encounter with a pelican. The manager was especially friendly and accommodating, even allowing us to park our trailer on-site for added security. We also appreciated the little coffee van out front, perfect for our early morning caffeine fix. a fresh, clean, and quiet hotel with great service.
