Westin Touts Sleep Over Sex in Times Square

westin_times_square_sleep.jpg

Not sure what this says about us but a recent survey found 51% of us would rather have a good night’s sleep than great sex. Well, we all get tired once in while, it seems, and do need a really good sleep. And the Westin is there to give it to us. In public. In Times Square.

Hmm. Times Square isn’t exactly the first place that comes to mind when one thinks of getting a good night’s sleep but, then again, hosting a promotion in the privacy of a hotel room isn’t likely to be seen by many people. So Times Square it is.

The Westin has partnered with the National Sleep Foundation (do we really need such a thing?) to launch the National Sleep Foundation Hotline where, presumably, people can discuss their sleeping problems with professionals. Hmm…we can just hear these “professionals” offering up the prepackaged advice, “Have you stayed at a Westin lately? They have really comfortable beds. Give it a try and call us next week.”
