Maybe you want to list down some of the features you are looking for?
How you intent to connect guest or staff?
How many rooms your hotel has? If it's like Genting First World then I honestly don't think it's going to work.
What's your uplink speed? To how many telco?
Generally I think hotel usage is bursty in the evening, unless you also got conference hall and do event.
It's a small hotel, with expected guest device capacity can fit in one /24 subnet at a time. And their hall, well more like seminar room. you get the idea. Config wise maybe 3 or 4 VLANs and QoS on traffic shaping and priority on VoIP, blocking certain ports and websites. Overall, I know RB5009 can handle.
what I'm asking for if you're in networking business, do you use consumer-grade or in this case prosumer-grade for enterprise environment knowing well it can do the job just as good? Because I heard some people insist on using enterprise grade no matter what.
I can instead choose CCR2004-16G-2S which is proper enterprise grade but seems waste of money.
