Of the 6,396 hotels and B&Bs listed in the 2010 AA guide, only 58% had Wi-Fi access. Worryingly, for the remaining 42%, customers ranked free Wi-Fi access as their number one requirement, above even a comfortable mattress, when selecting a hotel (source: JD Power & Associates survey of 50,000 consumers.)
