And the fact that a motel 6 is generally owned by a private owner, versus big box chains that are massively corporate. As Internet is free, it's a it a concern to them. The little guy has to Try harder, which leads to generally a better service.

Correct, one should not have expectations of fast reliable internet with low latency in a hotel.
The part that always puzzled me is why a major high-tier chain like Hilton can't get it right, but a Motel 6 can... :)
...sure they can but don't want to because *customers* will still come! Motel 6 on the otherhand, does not have that cachet and have to try-harder! Just Economics; nothing personal...;-) ./Randy
