EXTON, PA, September 15, 2006. Ken Kapikian, General Manager of the Philadelphia Sheraton University City, a Meyer Jabara managed hotel, welcomed other local hotel General Managers and Chief Engineers to a special Open House event on Thursday, September 14, to showcase SuiteLinq's eRoomsuite solution. eRoomsuite consists of a 32" LCD HD TV and SuiteLinq, a customized portal running on an in-room computer with high-speed Internet that offers a variety of free and pay-per-day features to the guest. SuiteLinq is a turn-key solution, (thin-client computer, flat panel 17" LCD monitor with integrated stereo speakers, plus keyboard and mouse), offering every hotel guest broadband connectivity, from-room printing, business productivity tools, and entertainment content from the safety, security and privacy of their guest rooms.

An average of 40% of the guests (to as high as 70% on some days) utilize SuiteLinq on a daily basis and almost 100% of guests surveyed said they would return to the Philadelphia Sheraton University City over other Philadelphia hotels because of the convenience and ease of use of the SuiteLinq system.

Ken Kapikian noted, "The idea of the Open House was to show other Philadelphia hotels technology which can help bring more and more travelers to the Philadelphia region, highlighting Philadelphia as a place that continues to be on the leading edge of technology in the hospitality sector." Additionally, he added, "More SuiteLinq installed rooms in the Philadelphia area means an exponential amount of people using the system each day, which will help drive advertising dollars that all hotels would share in. It's a win-win-win situation all around, most importantly for the guests, for the hotels and for the Philadelphia region as a whole. I am proud to be the first hotel to offer such a great amenity."

"I wish to thank Mr. Kapikian, Dennis Gagliardi, Chief Engineer and the entire staff of the Philadelphia Sheraton University City for their hospitality and cooperation in putting on the Open House event and thank you to all of the local hotel representatives that made it out during the day," said Joseph Mustilli, SuiteLinq, Inc's CEO. "The Open house was a tremendous success and I believe you will soon see many other hotels in the Philadelphia area implementing the SuiteLinq and total eRoomsuite solution."
