Challenge
With a majority of Residences at Daniel Webster guests now typically bringing multiple high-powered personal devices that they desired to connect to the property’s internet service, onsite leadership recognized the importance of providing a Wi-Fi infrastructure that could accommodate increasing demands on its capabilities. However, the extend stay hotel’s legacy network would frequently suffer from dropped connections and slow speeds. With many business traveler guests needing immediate and reliable Wi-Fi access to complete work-related tasks, this would often result in a number of guest complaints leading to reduced satisfaction with the overall hotel stay experience. As a result, the property sought out a reputable and leading provider of internet and Wi-Fi services technology that had extensive experience in serving the unique needs and challenges of the hospitality industry.
Property leadership ultimately decided to partner with HIS in implementing a network upgrade due to the company’s industry-leading expertise and strong reputation with previous clients. As a provider that specializes in serving the unique connectivity needs of the hospitality industry, HIS was able to ensure a high-speed and reliable Wi-Fi service throughout all areas of the property, including all suites, the on-site fitness center, club house and swimming pool areas. This was achieved using the latest in Wi-Fi network technology which included Ruckus access points being installed within strategic areas throughout the property, guaranteeing that guests can look forward to a strong and consistent Wi-Fi signal regardless of their physical location or the number of devices connected to the network at any one time.
“Obtaining fast and reliable Wi-Fi is a top priority for business travelers and properties that are unable to accommodate this need will inevitably experience a decline in repeat stays and reputation, so working with a reputable provider such as HIS is crucial to a hotel’s business,” said Robert Damiano, Regional Property Manager for Residences at Daniel Webster. “After previously working with another provider that could not deliver requested results, we are extremely satisfied with our partnership with HIS and their ability to implement a network capable of fulfilling guest expectations in a timely manner. Thanks to their industry-specific expertise and responsive customer support, our property has noticed a significant increase in guest satisfaction along with a rise in favorable online reviews.”
