Most travelers treasure the limited Wi-fi connection at the hotels they are staying in. For them, having access to their e-mail and social media accounts is their only way to contact the people they left back home. It could also be a way for them to update others about their staycation.

Unfortunately, most guests don’t know how to maximize the free Internet access their hotel provides. By knowing where to hang out and when’s the right time to go online, guests can get faster speeds inside the hotel.

The best connection isn’t inside the room. This is what guests should know. However, this is the only connection that they have access to. Instead of paying more money for faster speeds, guests can choose to leave their rooms and choose another place in the hotel where there’s better signal. Places such as the lobby, café, bar, library, business center, or even poolside have different networks. If a customer is checked in, he or she may ask hotel staff for access details. Most likely, there are different usernames and passwords for each location.

Make full use of free Internet access during the wee hours. When it’s past most guests’ bedtime and there are no more people in the lobby or the café, that’s the best time to go online. This is also the best time to enjoy the comfy couches and the relaxing ambiance of the hotel. For those who can’t seem to work well with a bed and a television in sight, going online at the lobby might be conducive to getting work done.

Wi-fi at hotels can be tricky but with right timing and location, guests can enjoy unlimited access for lower costs. If a guest needs help with configuring Wi-fi, hotel staff would be happy to help every step of the way.

Hotels are homes away from home of the guests. For some, staying in a hotel sounds glamorous. The thought of hotel staff making beds and cleaning rooms for a valued customer is an upgrade from having to make one’s own bed. On the other hand, there are those who are so used to living in a suitcase that they no longer care in which hotel they end up.

Hotel employees have a lot of stories to tell. Though their job is not as colorful as the TV and movies make them out to be, they have a treasure trove of anecdotes to which other employees from different hotels can surely relate.

For the cleaners, for instance, seeing how a room occupant tidies up speaks volumes about his or her personality. There are some people who depend on the staff to clean up after them while there are some who are already spic-and-span on their own. And of course, there are guests who ask for too much toiletries

xperience. First impressions are usually very different from the truth. There are some VIP guests who are too unassuming to be noticed while there are regular guests who want to be treated like royalty. When it’s peak season, there are people crowding around the front desk despite the number of staff in assistance. During the lean months, however, the receptionists can be seen doing other tasks.
