I think this seriously discounts how "personal" these devices are for people. It would be like loaning a toothbrush to someone who already has one of their own and expecting it to be returned. At best, perhaps a loaned portable WiFi device that provided a walled-garden branded for the particular Hotel's services would be more likely to be accepted.

Yes, effectively that's what the smartphone will function as - a loaned portable Wifi device. We don't expect that people would use our devices for personal use? I'd expect them to use their own devices for their own personal apps.

  I misread your original submission-- so I'm wrong on what you were offering.

    Sorry for the confusion - what did you originally think it was?

      Read "mobile" and confused it with the noun some use for a mobile-phone instead of an adjective describing something else. English is a pain sometimes. :)
