What do Travelers of all ages want at hotels? Connectivity

 Courtesy Wikimedia/Wi-Fi alliance

 

Whether you’re a Baby Boomer, a Millennial, or a “whatever Generation”, when it comes to hotel stays we all want good online connectivity.  It seems that internet access has long gone from a luxury to a requirement while traveling (which is no surprise to me as I sit in a hotel room in Boston writing this post).

 

Obviously the more tech savvy a traveler, the greater the demand for bandwidth.  But all travelers seem to want the ability to access the internet using multiple devices.  Hotels will likely go to offering basic internet free and faster speeds/more data capacity for a fee.
