High Speed Internet

Just stayed at the Courtyard at

8501 PALM PARKWAY, POBOX 22527
LAKE BUENA VISTA, FL 32830

They don't have high speed internet AND don't have plans for high speed internet.

ARGH!

Same for MDW Courtyard.
This is also one of the biggest upgrade offenders.

How can you be sure? Most CY's I've been to have a single tier of suites, total of 3-4. Not much in the way of upgrades available.

Frankly I wouldn't care - this is one of the few hotel chains that still charges exhorbitant $$$ for Internet access.

Very true. I'm in the RI at O'Hare airport tonight and the HS Internet works fine...and it's free.
I'm sure that there are a few renegade Marriott's out there that have yet to toe the line on HS Internet but I'm also sure that Marriott will kick their butts sooner rather than later.
I just wish most would agree on a standard HS carrier. I have some real problems with many of them as to connectability. The HS here, billed as STSN on the Marriott Website, is actually a company called "zum". I was finally able to log on after re-configuring my system.
