Matthew,

Working for a Wi-Fi manufacturer (other than Ubiquiti) I'd like to offer
some advice based on what we see in the hospitality market. Creating
sufficient density, capacity and coverage solely with the 2.4GHZ band is
really hard to do. You might be able to pull it off if the hotel is very
small, you use the lowest TX possible and put an AP in every guest room.
Otherwise, I'd work toward creating a dual-band network and make the most
of the 5GHz band. When we engineer hotel installations we often disable 2.4
on 'every-other' AP. This is not a hard and fast rule of course.
Architecture, construction and materials will play into that decision, but
in general, we turn down 2.4 to half-power and disable many of those radios
on our dual-band APs. Most of our hotel installations are governed by the
brand (or flag, we like to say) and as such, we are seeing a big push to
in-room APs that support 802.11ac wave 2.

If the UniFi In-Wall AP meets your needs, great. They do make a really fine
product, but engineer carefully. Best of luck!
