I work in a hotel that provides me with a room and food. Can my employer include the value of the room and food when he figures out if he is paying me minimum wage or not?

Yes, up to a certain value. As of April 2008, the minimum wage can be reduced by $2.76 for every meal consumed and by $3.65 for lodging per day.
