: Significaria que se encuentra en cada rincon de una habitacion, por ejemplo, me parece demasiado literal

: i think this is far too literal - and I can't imagine ever saying it in this context. It works for something like "he's travelled to every corner of the world" or "I looked in every corner of the house and couldn't find it"

Rick Larg
: Sorry, but if you say that you are ruling out the straight parts of the hotel: corridors, etc. Too literal.

Obviously not a literal translation. Here's the problem with "in every corner"--to an English speaker, it sounds like you need to be in a certain place in order to access the wireless internet. This is not the case. In fact, "wireless internet access" is readily understood to mean that you can just take your laptop there and get online--no modifier is really necessary. If you want to specify that you can get wireless internet in all rooms or throughout the hotel, just say it.
