Fantastico - oltre le aspettative
Pros:

La camera pulita con tutto quello che serve.
Comodissimo il noleggio delle biciclette e la possibilità di fare yoga sul rooftop.
Si attraversa la strada e si è a south beach dove è possibile avere lettino ed ombrellone.
Struttura storica ben tenuta, è andata oltre le mie aspettative

Cons:

Le finestre non si potevano aprire

Hotel muy cómodo para disfrutar de Ocean Drive sin renunciar al descanso.
Pros:

Habitación muy acogedora, espaciosa y cómoda. Situado en Ocean Drive, pero a la distancia justa para no escuchar el ruido de los bares por la noche. Las hamacas y sombrilla incluidas cada día en la playa son una gran ventaja.

Cons:

La piscina es muy pequeña, y en verano está demasiado caliente. Por lo demás, un acierto.

not especially expensive, but still not worth it, surrounding hotels are better
Pros:

walking distance to the beach, close to CVS and walgreens for convenience, walking distance to some restaurants

Cons:

was charged for extra things and they never even sent a receipt, received a surprise charge to my bank account, my booking was also cancelled because my flight was delayed despite that i informed the hotel i was going to check in due to a change in my flights, it took almost an hour to fix the cancellation and check in, the place is also dirty for a hotel with grime and mold in the shower, the tables weren’t cleaned in my room when i got in, the hotel AC also barely works, this place felt more like a 2.5 than a 3 star hotel

Pros:

Wir hatten eine super Zeit im Balfour Hotel!
Glücklicherweise bekamen wir Upgegrade und hatten ein noch cooleres Zimmer.
Überhaupt hat das Hotel ein sehr schönes Interior. im Retro-Contemporary Style.
Taylor, der Hotel Manager war so lieb und gab uns sehr gute Tipps zu Restaurants und Bars. Der Strand ist gleich über die Strasse. Liegen und Handtücher sind inkludiert.
Ich freute mich über den Steamer im Zimmer.
Wir kommen sehr gerne wieder.
Bis Bald und Danke!

Teleurstellende ervaring met chagrijnig personeel achter de balie en de bar
Pros:

De ligging is prima. Centraal bij Miami Beach

Cons:

Het personeel was bijzonder onvriendelijk (met uitzondering van de man die de nachtdienst had). De bedden waren van zeer slechte kwaliteit en er was geen privacy in de kamer omdat het raam uitkeek op de centrale binnenplaats (en dus andersom ook)

Lovely location and cute place.
Pros:

Close to the beach and many attractions, very calm neighborhood yet close enough to nightlife for a good time. Cute hotel

Cons:

The bathrooms were a bit old, and the facilities could get a little fixer upper, but it’s still overall nice.
