Before hotels had wifi, they had a free 'lobby computer' with internet that you could use. Like the library. (lemmy.world)

I remember doing this at the Embassy Suits probably around 2002.

This is still very much a thing, in the US at least.

Where have you seen it? Any particular chains?

[–] iheart2code@lemmy.world 10 points 2 weeks ago

I've seen it at the various Marriott and Hilton chains. There will be a small "business center" room off of the lobby with a few basic computers and maybe even a printer.

I don't travel much but I drive for doordash for extra cash. Basically every motel I go to still has that public office room with a couple computers and a printer in there. La Quinta, motel 6 just off the top of my head.

Literally everything that's not a hotel 6 quality stay.
