Vintage Park - Nil, Nada, nothing.

All in all, Alexis and Monaco had excellent service from the front desk to the conceirge. Vintage Park was still under construction and I had to take a elevator to a converted room on either the 2nd or 3rd floor to check in. Service was indifferent, not up to Kimpton standards. It was raining heavily, perhaps there is something to be said about it and people's mood.
You hit the nail on the head. Several other posters have yelped, travel advisored, and flyertalked reviewed about Vintage Park being one of the worst Kimpton properties. Has nothing to do with the rain btw I was there on a sunny day (plus I live in Seattle). They just are not a very good property imo staff wise. I'm at a Kimpton property now and to say the least the staff here is incredibly fantastic compared to the Vintage Park. I told one of the managers they need to be transferred up to the Vintage Park and "fix" them so that they operate like this property
