Why is it that the crappier the hotel, the more likely it is to offer free internet? When I went to Boston this month the hotel cost more per night than I paid in monthly rent for my first apartment, yet there was a surcharge for internet access. Every crappy motel I've stayed in this century had free ethernet, if not free wi-fi.

The crappy ones are also the holes that have a mini fridge and microwave for you to use, where as hotels won't allow you even access to one. I have found they want you to use their restaurants that are downstairs. Would have never noticed it, except that now I can't eat there usually.
My guess is completely different business model.

I guess if most people that stay at these places are business travelers, then it's going to be on an expense account, and therefore vulnerable to gouging.
It's the Jews. Maybe the Hindus that run most motels. You know it's not the Catholics because there was no free priest hand job thrown in.
Actually, I blame the druids.

They are kinda like women - the cheaper the drinks she drinks the easier she puts out?
