Ramada by Wyndham Miami Springs/Miami International Airport
Great location by the airport, having the shuttle helps a lot !! We enjoyed our stay and also having the Bar within the premises helps too when you arrive late and nothing is open near by to get food and drinks,by been in the hotel and closing late it’s great.
