ONE REASON WE stay in the
Affinia Manhattan is because we can run several devices simultaneously on its LodgeNet wireless internet access service. Lodgenet costs us $11.95 per day and its all over the hotel. At night, you can find people sitting on the carpet in the lobby with their netbooks (or European iPhones), using the connectivity to post photos or check email. I use it upstairs for video uploads, iTunes purchases,
Online Meeting Rooms sessions, and sync services to
Mozy,
Ovi, and
Dropbox. This is a robust business class wireless service, one that the hotel should consider emphasizing as a competitive advantage for returning visitors. I's stood outside the front door, running
Qik on my Nokia E90 at left, tethered to the hotel's Lodgenet service. It's one of the reasons I return to
Affinia Manhattan.
