No, I don't think anyone can. The problem is that you seem to be
lacking in numbers. You know, those things like range desired,
topology, number of access points, bandwidth, user count, antenna
locations, and of course, the cost. Also, some clue as to what you
have for an internet connection and router. While you're at it, some
clue as to how you plan to enter user accounts. That's usually where
things go awry.
In your spare time, you might find the FAQ useful, especially the part
on selecting hotspot hardware and software:

Authentication is 802.1x which requires a RADIUS server. There are a
few that have a built in RADIUS server, but they're not made by
Linksys. Zyxel G-2000 Plus has built in RADIUS server:

Also, look at turnkey coffee shop and motel wireless systems,
especially if you're planning on doing usage accounting and billing.
