By definition, overnight guests are customers. While some hotels do not mind if 
you come in just for the wifi without even buying a coffee, some will. In my 
experience, most free wifi is actually (intended to be) customers-only, even if 
most osm contributors don't bother to tag it.

Do you make a difference between monthly and sorter timespan ? Is tacit 
reconduction the issue ? In any case, the *:fee tag should be used. When you're 
abroad, even a cumbersome signup process might be worth it.
