Free Wireless Hotspots

Being a budget traveler I prefer to get things for free when possible and one thing that’s fairly easy to come by are wifi hot spots. Here’s a list of the ones I’ve found so far.
Mexico
Cancun
Mayan Hostel - The wifi works downstairs (usually) and occasionally you can get a very low signal up on the patio.
Merida
Nomadas Hostel - The wifi works in the lobby and dining area and you can occasionally get signal in the closer rooms/dorms. The hostel is nice as well - try to get a lower bunk if you’re in the dorms. The mattress is bigger.
Zocalo - Calle 60 x 61. Quick to connect and a strong signal. They even have plugs that you can use near most of the benches.
Park - Calle 59 x 60. Takes a while to connect but there are two options with decent speed/signal. There are plugs nearby but not as convenient as in the Zocalo. But, it’s smaller and there are fewer people/salesmen/buskers so it’s easier to concentrate. There are a few restaurants right on the square if you want to have a meal while surfing.
Panchos - Calle 59 x 60 y 62. You’ll have to eat to use it, but the signal is very strong. The food is good too though if you get anything besides Salbutes it can be expensive for dinner (@ 200 MXN for an entree). I think they have a lunch menu that is a bit cheaper though.
