I would think it would be a matter of negligence if the previous IT
Consultant setup wireless access for Hotel Customers to use that also
had direct access to the Hotel's network in some way that a virus could
jump to their business servers. That just doesn't sound like "sound" or
"secure" planning.

All too many networks are set up by a McSE (You want fries with that?) who
wouldn't know a secure network if it bit them on the ass.  And having been
bitten, they'd remove all the secure network's teeth to prevent further bites.
