These manangement companies have been minimizing their cap/opex from fall 2007 through the end of 2011. They're still not spending on stuff unless it reduces their cost.The reason is Hilton outsources it to AT&T. They don't build the networks for performance in my experience. I have started to avoid some hotels that moved from level3 to AT&T for their Internet providers as they are very slow at peak times. Sad as we all know the main cost for 1g to a site is in the optics (well actually the fiber build... But after that, it costs almost nothing to light it at 1g). A pair of 20km optics is about $250.
Not sure why they deliver such poor service on their wifi products. When talking to their support they always cite extraordinary usage.
