I can't speak for any other hotels, but I do know that we have free internet throughout our hotel for our guests. We provide the ethernet cable that you need to plug into your laptop right in the room for you, and we also have two computers in our Lobby equipped with wifi so that you can check email!

Hope this helps!

Wow - I didn't realise you supplied the eithernet cable as well

Free internet is a really nice bonus - I've just been looking at how much it's would cost me per day when I visit the states next month and both hotels I'm staying in charge about $14 a day!

I try to go through from the oldest to the newest, so sometimes it takes awhile! I'll keep my eyes peeled for you!

According to the Candy Cane Inn website,

CCI has complimentary high-speed wireless Internet access.

Castle Inn does. You just get the password from the front desk.

So far my research indicates additional internet charges at the Camelot Inn, Carousel Inn, and the Tropicana.

The Fairfield Inn Anaheim on Harbor has free wifi internet.

Im so confused. I just got a lap top and was told I could get wifi for free ( yes Im internet stupid) is this true? or do I need to buy it. I was told that where ever I go I can get it like air ports etc to. I hate to have to pay 10.00 or 15.00 a day when Im only going to use it for a short time each night.

Do you mean the salesperson told you that?

From my understand, it's half right, half wrong.

Some places have open networks, signals roaming through the air, that anyone can use to get online. Other places have networks that require passwords. Others require payment.

PPH, twice so far, has a network down in their lobby area that doesn't require a password. You're not supposed to be able to get it in the rooms. However, the signals/waves don't know what doors, walls, and ceilings are, and both times we've stayed there, I have been able to hitch a ride with their signals and get wifi in my room, for free. Even though I'm not supposed to. I'm supposed to hook into the wall, or pay for the wifi network in the room.

Once when driving home from Anaheim, we stayed at a Motel 6 in OR. They had no internet, but the hotel next door did. You saw more than one person out on the Motel 6 balcony, trying to access the password-only account from the other hotel. I could not guess the password, so we couldn't use it.

And then there are places where you can pay for wireless internet, and I know we stayed at one of those place but I can't remember where...Courtyard in San Jose, maybe? Hmm. I think we just plugged into the wall instead of paying for the wireless.


Your computer has the capability. But not every place has free wifi available for those with capable computers. Half right, half wrong. Total salesguy.


I will give you a tip at HoJo...even though they have cables, they are SHORT. I personally don't like being tethered to the very very top of the bed almost falling in the crack between bed and bedside table, which is what I've had to do when I use their cable. Way too short. So I'd bring my own cable anyway, so that you can move a bit further away. And the cables we've had in their rooms are a bit loose in the connection area b/c people have used and abused the little things that make the connection tighter. Again, I'd bring my own cable.

Thank you for this info it was the laptop guy who sold me my laptop who told me this. said you can use open network, and not to touch passworded ones. I am a bit confused so thats why I asked. You cleared it up for me nicely. I found out today that getaway today is hav ing the 5 for 3 and they have free internet, and the package was and is less then the one I have now by 200.00 so Im thrilled.

I think we'll be paying around $10 a day for it at the Tropicana. My Mom and I will split the costs since she'll be using our computer in my room too. Which doesn't make it bad.

Yeah would be nice if it was free, but can't be the location so I'm okay with it.

We had free wifi at the Desert Inn last January.

I agree with bringing your own longer ethernet cable to switch out and use in the room instead of HOJO's as theirs is very, very short. I chimed in on this same situation on a previous thread a few weeks ago and was told that if you ask, HOJO's will lend you a longer cable but I like having my own.
