Hey, the name business grade connection is prejudiced, as if to imply,
that only businesses get it. I think the expectation from a
visitor, is only, that their internet experience will be comparable
to their home cable/dsl internet.
If it's not... that's fine, but they should provide disclosure of
that, whenever mentioning the feature, before a reservation could
be made.
Of course there can be no worldwide standard, but there should be a
standard, based on what is normal in the country.
If the advertising tells you, that the room has electric lights, air
conditioning, and cable tv; you don't want to see a room that just
has a 9 volt battery, a little LED lamp, as your light source -- a
portable battery powered fan.
And a single shared television in the lobby, plugged into a cable
provider that charges a per-minute fee to visitors wishing to see
anything other than channel 3.
