Top Wollongbar Hotel Reviews

The Cubana Ballina

The Cubana Ballina

10/10 Excellent
"Our room was clean and the bed was quite comfortable. The parking lot can get quite full but we never had an issue finding a spot near our room. We didn’t use the bbq facilities but saw other families enjoying them and would be keen to use them next time. My only negative about this accommodation is that we had neighbours on each side who smoked (cigarettes outside and marijuana in one of the rooms), and it smelled so strong of marijuana in our own room that we had to leave the window open to air it out. We did put towels under the doors to make it better, but the smell was quite strong. We didn’t complain about it because we didn’t spend much time in the room anyway, and probably not much that staff could do. But I would definitely stay here again and enjoy the convenient location to all areas of Ballina (walking distance to CBD)."

"Well located with friendly staff and free parking accessible via lift. Had a good stay here but the room was a little noisy. There are sets of “A” and “B” rooms accessible by a common door soi heard my neighbours coming in and out a bit. Apart from the noise, a pleasant stay."
