Stayed here for one night and enjoyed my stay. The Hollywood sign view from my room was awesome and it's a fantastic location next to a metro station (useful for Universal Studios), a cool music store, a Star Wars bar, and a lot more. I actually quite enjoyed the Hollywood location. Pool area also has nice views and wasn't crowded when I went (late Sunday afternoon).
Also got free valet parking for the night with the Kimpton password ("Social sent me") and a $10 bar credit for holding the IHG credit card and being Platinum. Only main negative was the ridiculous $46 amenity fee even though I used a 40k cert. I wish those kind of games weren't allowed.
