You are excited to go to Miami, the heaven, but you end up getting scammed left and right from hotels and restaurants. And you are shook cause these hotels and restaurants are reputable. But if you know these Miami travel tips, you don’t have to worry.
Resort Fee
When my friend first went to Miami, they stayed at the Delano for 2 weeks.
And when they got the bill, they realized they were charged almost another 1000 dollars.
The hotel told them it was the resort fee. The problem was that they had no idea there were such thing as a resort fee.
Of course they didn’t. Cause the resort fee is hidden like a cockroach!
RESORT FEES ARE DOESN’T SHOW UP UNTILL YOU CHECK OUT
How they make you a reservation, it might say taxes and fees are not included.
But you know when you finalise how much you pay on taxes.
But there is no word on resort fee, cause that is when you pay when you check out. LET ME SHOW YOU.
So most of the people were not be aware until they check out. This is just an example of a cheap hotel, but if you go to a high end hotels, they might charge you up to 60 dollars.
