When travelling and staying in motels with wireless hotspots, can I
generally count on being able to connect to the internet from my room,
regardless of location? Or, am I sometimes going to have to go to the
lobby to go online?

Depends on the hotel/motel. Some have good coverage in all rooms.
Others have spotty coverage.

Some offer NO coverage in the rooms (except the bleed through from the
lobbies or other hot spots.
