Got bed bug bites while there. Moved to another room that wasn’t what we paid for because the AC was knowingly out and they didn’t say anything I had to go up and tell them. They said they knew but no one would be able to fix. Should have set up accommodations before putting us in the room. Got given another room and was given bed bugs

On Expedia the price states "includes fees and taxes" but on the receipt it states $45 resort fee due on property. This was frustrating. Then we got into our room and I opened the curtains to find half of the drywall falling down with mold (photo), we moved rooms and our next room had a leaking air conditioner with water all over the front of the wardrobe (the only place to put clothes) and the floor. We finally settled in the 3rd room. They gave us a coupon for a free welcome drink - but didn't tell us it was only for beer and champagne. However, the staff was nice enough - definitely didn't go out of their way to be helpful or offer to help move our bags from room to room.

Great location, easy valet parking, very pretty ambiance. The tropical atrium and upper-level pool with a glass viewing wall are lovely. The beach is basically across the street and hotel guests have access to beach lounge chairs and umbrellas, which is great. Some of the staff were very really friendly (the afternoon and evening crew); others not so much. Overall I’m very happy with the Expedia VIP perks and the Expedia service. However, I just noticed a hefty charge on my credit card from the Balfour Hotel that’s more than expected for parking plus whatever fees they must have charged separately from my Expedia booking payment. If those extra charges aren’t reversed, then I’ll be pretty disappointed in the total cost of this stay. So if you’re considering this hotel, be aware of potential fees added on. Otherwise, I completely recommend this hotel for a South Beach getaway.

The Balfour was a great experience for myself & fiance over the past weekend. The staff was knowledgeable and nice overall. The room was clean and organized with the basic amenities you would expect such as working tv & wifi, with a strongly working air conditioner in the room which is important for a very humid area in Miami. I've been coming here for a number of years so I've went thru the multiple changes it gone thru over the time. The checkout process was simple and straightforward as service at the front desk is actually 24hrs. The gentleman there helped me logout around 4AM to get our ride to the airport so they're very responsive and courteous overall. To be unbiased, I have to share a small negative. I wish there was more food options on their menu for breakfast & dinner. But other than that it's all good. Will be back again soon!

Your resort fee is a rip off. Wake up Service is non existent. The "pool" is a joke. Your guests should have access to the pool at the Savoy like it use to.
