I had a lovely stay at the Cubana in Ballina. They are the friendliest staff I have ever met and always had a smile and a chat. The rooms were spotless and I just loved that I had a kitchen and laundry available anytime of the day. The pool was sparkling and the grounds well cared for. The rooms were quiet and even though many people stayed, I didn't hear them. Thanks for a great stay.

We stayed one night on the way home from Sydney and it was clean and comfortable with the best shower pressure I’ve had in a long time. Need to drive for food and coffee but an easy stay.

Accommodation is spacious, and immaculately kept. Grounds and pool are likewise. Highly recommended from a pair who usually stay in 5 star big-name hotels
