Contact support and tell them you need VPN access on the WiFi you are paying for.
Seriously, lots of employees depend on VPNs to access their work computers. VPNs are also a great way to ensure the hotel isn't snooping your internet traffic.
unless you are important they'll tell you to pound sand.
That's not a good way to keep customers. I would leave a bad review and maybe even find a different hotel. You could ask for a refund for your remaining stay you could argue they are engaging in false advertising.
Let's be real the type of hotel I can afford doesn't want customers that care about the Wi-Fi
Then don't offer WiFi. It costs them more to ruin your experience
