The Marriott has free wifi. They will give you a log in and password when you check in.

I am unsure about the hospital.

At the Marriott my husband had trouble getting a strong enough wifi signal to face chat for us checking in just IN HIS ROOM, but if he went to the lobby or other public access points it was perfectly fine. Just wanted to let folks know that if this was part of your plan for communicating, it really worried him the first day, but we got it figured out and was smooth sailing!

I am going to Tijuana for surgery...my husband is staying home in the USA. I called Verizon and they said that if I am in WIFI at Mi hospital and WIFI at the Marriott, that we can facetime and text for FREE. If we do either of those things outside of me being in WIFI, the cost is 99 cents per minute, 5 cents to receieve a text, and 50 cents to send a text. I hope this holds out to be true!!!

I was scared of us getting a crazy phone bill just in case he wasn't in the correct spot, those phone companies can't be trusted.

Went to Canada right across the boarder got the message from verizon stating we were out of area and immediately turned off the phones. No other data/phone/text were sent and they ended up charging us $20 for their reminder text. They gave it back but ha to prove we didn't do anything.

As soon as they pulled up to the boarder my hubby turned his data and signal off so his phone essentially became an iPod, then we utilized tango and skype and the wifi. We could still text through tango as well as call and FaceTime. Just took all of the risk away because the phone was off, only using wifi.

Have a safe trip and see you on the losers bench!

Silly question, but how do you turn off the data and signal on an iphone to make it become an ipod. Im an idiot with technology.

I put my phone in airplane mode.

Ok, cool....I know how to do that.....I guess I just didn't realize the purpose or if that would hinder the use of texting and facetime while in wifi. THANK YOU!!

The wifi at the Marriott is limited to only one device per room. So if two people are in the room, only one can connect their device to wifi. I thought that was ridiculous.

[blackfalls 26]

dk, you just had to ask for more wifi passwords. They asked me how many devices I had.

The wifi in my room at Mi Doctor (303) cut in and out and I had to ask them to reset the router twice. The nurses did not know how; I only got results when I asked a doctor (Valenzuela's assistant). The 4th floor was great though so I would visit my friend who was in 408 to use the internet reliably.
