If you don't like it, let them know, and stop providing them with your business. Money talks. They'll either decide they need to invest in good Internet, or they'll decide that for their customer demographic it just isn't worth it. I personally think you're being unreasonable on the bandwidth and latency expectations, Hotel Internet connections are there as a convenience rather than some kind of business grade connection. If you are expecting a top quality connection, expect to pay by the GB - so that greedy patrons watching Netflix HD pay for their bandwidth. Broken SSH connections would annoy me though. Graham.
