Just call the next AKA hotel you book a stay at the "Land of the Free, Home of the Guest Perk." There's nothing like a good freebie to get the masses riled up, especially in this age of pinching pennies, downsizing luxuries, and silently repeating the "Money doesn't grow on trees" mantra that your parents may have hammered into your head growing up. Abiding by the principles of Recessionomics, AKA Hotels is throwing in more free perks along with those mini bottles of shampoo and body wash that some guests secretly squirrel away after checking in. In our opinion, there are some things that should inarguably come with the price of the room, like Heidi Atwal 2009-09-15T14:08:22-05:00 Philadelphia: Jamie Foxx Has a Security Issue at AKA Philly http://www.hotelchatter.com/story/2009/4/3/81551/89145 <![CDATA[<img src="http://www.hotelchatter.com/files/6929/akaphilly.jpg" class="top"> We joke about stalking celebs 'round here quite a bit but we promise we'd, like, never actually go stalk them. We're not nutjobs. Poor Jamie Foxx got quite a scare earlier this month when a stalker made his way into the actor's room at the luxury extended-stay <a href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/hotel-reviews/Aka+Korman+One+Rittenhouse/ian/259505">AKA Rittenhouse Square</a> in Philadelphia. <a href="http://www.tmz.com/2009/04/02/jamie-foxx-holed-up-by-hotel-intruder/">TMZ reports</a>: <blockquote> It all went down at the AKA Hotel in Philadelphia on March 22 -- sources say Jamie had to physically struggle to shove a 49-year-old perp out of his room, after the guy tricked Foxx into thinking he was Beyonce's producer. We're told Jamie realized something was wrong as soon as he opened the door, but the suspect Jenna 2009-04-03T09:36:26-05:00 39.9505559 -75.170528 Zipcar Rentals Now Available at AKA Hotels http://www.hotelchatter.com/story/2008/2/28/14657/6959 <![CDATA[<img src="http://www.hotelchatter.com/files/admin/Exterior_AKACentralPark.jpg" class="imgborder">AKA Central Park<a href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/tag/AKA%20Hotels">AKA Hotels</a> are extended-stay hotels so it actually makes sense that they have partnered up with the hot new car sharing service, <a href="http://www.zipcar.com">Zipcar</a>.

This V-Day deal is valid across their four Manhattan properties, which are located near Central Park, the United Nations, Times Square and at Sutton Place on East 56th.The premise behind AKA's Valentine's Day package is that the special day falls on a Thursday this year, which is probably during the working week for many of their business guests. Their offer is for people who have booked a 5-day stay (probably the working week) and can then add two nights for free--which should be set aside for a romantic time with their other half.

Many of the 70 million Americans with a sleep problem travel for work. These carpetbaggers find themselves in unfamiliar surroundings atop scratchy linens. They lay awake agonizing over the 9 a.m. PowerPoint presentation instead of resting their brains in preparation for the challenges of the day ahead. In response, <a href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/tag/aka%20hotels">AKA</a>, a division of the Korman Communities chain of extended-stay hotels, has created the AKA Sleep School. The project is a partnership of New York University School of Medicine Sleep Disorders Center and the New York Sleep Institute. Guests can choose customized accommodations, participate in evening "sleep school" seminars, and receive in-room screenings with board-certified sleep specialists.
