Was gonna use the current password Sunday at the Monaco in Philadelphia but the manager on duty hooked me up w a major upgrade so I took that as my reward!
Used it today at the Brice in savannah and got free parking. Curious if for one night or the whole stay but either way I'm happy with the perk I got.

When I stayed at The Brice in July, the free parking was good for my entire stay.

Drink coupons. Was already upgraded so the desk agent asked drinks or breakfast.

At the LA Hotel Palomar today (10/1), I asked if they were still doing the secret word. They said yes and offered a drink certificate/credit or a continental breakfast (or some sort of credit towards parking, not sure how much as I don't have a car). I picked the breakfast.

We have three December Xmas-family-trip-stuff related stays coming up at Kimptons. Mrs. JohnMacWW is going to be very excited about this.
I'm feeling some poetic inspiration coming on!

Awesome. I just booked an award night for this weekend when the going rate was $450 plus.
Thank you Kimpton!

Warm Woolen Mittens!
I saw on facebook last week that the secret word is back again! On December 2nd the facebook page was updated to say:
"Just when you started to really miss it... the Secret Social Password is back! Today through March 4th, just say Warm Woolen Mittens at check-in and receive a special surprise from the hotel. Dont worry, you dont need to whisper it we love to hear you use it loud and proud!"
Anyone have any luck using it yet? Also, has anyone ever had luck calling ahead of time to see what the hotel will surprise you with?
