If their admin and guest network are combined. That's a BAD move, and having been an IT Manager at a hotel, I would not have minded if someone as yourself called the Front Desk and wished to be transferred to my extension to tell me how awful the guest network was configured (not all IT Managers are that way).
From my experience, generally, hotel rooms are on the same VLAN, meeting rooms are all either on the same VLAN, or broken down into seperate VLANs per meeting room. Network traffic is generally left open, but is constantly monitored, and the way my hotel guest network was setup, if someone were consistently SPAMing, or abusing the network the company that managed our guest network (if I had to I'd never get anything done) would block his connection, requiring him to call an 800 number and tell them he read the policy and would not abuse it again (if he did, he would be permanently blocked), or if it wasn't malicious just scale down his connection so that he did not eat up all the bandwidth when other users were on.
