Jetsetter - interesting points. Perhaps I have the 'Wisdom Of Solomon' answer here. (Or more like, The Wisdom Of Homer Simpson.) 
You ask how does the $0.00 a night guest provide Hilton with a 'consideration'?
Why simple, guest needs to consume a $4.50 can of Coke from the mini bar a day, so the actual cost of his/her Hilton stay is not $0.00 but $4.50 a day plus tax. Thus Hilton screws the $0.00 Army on the Cokes, who in turn they think they are screwing Hilton on the room rate.

That's NOT consideration. You don't have to pay anything. YOU ARE NOT OBLGATED TO DO ANYTHING.
As much as the $0 army wants the rest of us to believe the emporer is fully clothed, its painfully obvious to the rest of us is that he is both naked, and not particularly well-endowed.
