Interference as in RF interference from others on the same or nearby channel is 
one thing.  

Actively disrupting a legal communication is another thing.  That is never 
legal.  

And since it is internet, and since internet is defined by the FCC as 
interstate in nature, actively disrupting interstate commerce can be considered 
an act of terrorism.  They should consider themselves lucky.

Marriott are dicks, but here's an interesting question...



broad spectrum 2.4 or 5 GHz jammers are illegal, yeah.

But is an 802.11-compliant device issuing deauth requests illegal, if part-15 
devices are supposed to accept any unwanted interference and there's no 
recourse?


Provided that the device issuing deauth requests is operating within spec for 
EIRP, channel plan, etc.
