Palladian in Seattle -- $25 F&B credit. Used it for breakfast to-go. Waited 30 minutes...for oatmeal and sliced fruit. The oatmeal was so bad I threw it away; I didn't know it was possible to screw up oatmeal. Big waste of time waiting for this.

Monaco Pittsburgh - they let me look over the cards as per earlier in this thread - for giggles I asked for free parking and without missing a beat they said sure ($35 value...)

From their facebook page:
is the secret word ending?! or did they just mean a new one is coming?
User: I will be staying in October I hope that code still works thank you for responding!
Kimpton Hotels & Restaurants: We're bummed to say that secret word runs out on September 30th, Anita. Though we know you'll still have an amazing stay.

Passwords and IC
Vintage Portland: we already put something in your room as IC was the response to the secret password.
Lame.

Madera DC- free dinner at Firefly. Dinner was $100, took it off the room bill before I even checked out. Best one yet!

Buchanan SF - They had a mini Zen rock garden with 6-8 stones. You pick one and turn it over to reveal your gift. First one was an upgrade, which I already had. Next was a movie.

Salomar San Diego: Free drink at bar. Turns out the bar didn't accept that coupon except "after happy hour" which I wouldn't be there for. The guy at the poolside bar was kinda an ... about it.

Palomar Chicago- they have a jar to pick from. Picked the late check out one which I should already get for IC. Didn't need anyway.
Monaco Chicago- was offered a bottle of wine or free movie.

Monaco Pittsburgh - At check in a couple weeks ago they said the secret password ended Aug 30. I disagreed and they let me flip the cards anyways. We chose free breakfast and ended up spending around $50. Later in the night I showed them the Kimpton tweet stating Sept 30 as the end date. They apologized saying that's what their manager told them earlier in the week.
I also inquired about the Nightcap Program. The front desk stated it is only offered on weeknights. Disappointing...considering hardly anyone even knows of the program.
Overall, a very enjoyable stay at one of my favorite Kimpton Hotels. Upgraded to a suite. Decent IC amenity. Female bartender Sat night at The Commoner was excellent.

RiverPlace in Portland this week. They asked what I wanted and I suggested free parking. He comped valet parking and gave me a voucher for a cocktail. Pretty good deal...

We're new to Kimpton, were thrilled to use the secret password in our first stay 2 months ago. We have another stay in 2 weeks, do we expect a new password to be announced (and if so, where?)
