Addresses in my area seem to be OK, so I think they are moreless OK for the rest of the country

I think that the situation is getting slowly better also here. However, landlines are much more reliable in this psecific time

In hotels (low/medium class) in which I stayed in 2005 and 2006 the surcharge was about 33-40% It might be expressed as the cost of a "billing impulse" (which is enough for 3 min local call/dialup) is let's say 0.50 PLN whereas the same "impulse" from a home line would cost 0.36 PLN. I recalled that there may be another problem - the phone cable may be permamently (i.e not via plugs) attached both to the wall and the phone itself
. OTOH there may be Internet access in the hotel via the internet or WiFi, but it's still not very likely.
