NEVER STAY AT HILTON HOTELS.

Please re-blog and repost this.

I’d encourage anyone that reads my website to never stay at Hilton hotels, I’m staying at one in Chicago and they overcharge the fuck out of you for internet use. In the rooms, its $12.95 a night for “Basic Broadband” and it goes up to $17.95 for “Premium Broadband.” Here’s the deal, I bought the Basic one and it was slow as shit, like 5 KB/s. So basically, for legit broadband, you have to pay $18 a night.

If you’re gonna charge people for internet, that’s shitty, but almost standard, but that “Basic” and “Premium” bullshit is unheard of and really a fuck you to the guests.

Then, I went to the lobby expecting free wi-fi. NOPE. $7.95/hour. PER HOUR. But its unlimited access!

Fuck you Hilton. PLEASE re-blog this.

And once again, FUCK YOU HILTON HONORS.

This is something of an ongoing mystery to me, why nicer hotels charge for WiFi while modest ones such as Hilton Garden Inn (to stay on point with Hilton) offer WiFi for free to its guests. My guess is that they’re assuming that business travelers will simply be expensing Internet access so the guests don’t really pay, other corporations do. Everybody wins, right? Except if you’ve ever had the hassle of getting WiFi set up at a hotel that charges (or even sometimes just plug-in broadband), you know that the guest remains the loser.
