[Recorded March 2012]  So, what went wrong?  Well, I think I almost got kicked off of the property!  To start, the reason that the video is so short is because I never intended for it to be uploaded.  When the elevator decided it was going to go down instead up up right after I boarded, I decided it would be better to let it go and catch the other one and (hopefully) have an uninterrupted ride.  When I saw that it was going to take a while, I just shut the camera off and waited around in the elevator lobby for the elevators to run their course and become free again.  While I was waiting, a hotel maid who spoke no English came into the elevator lobby, saw me, and (to put it lightly) threw a fit.  She started yelling at me in Spanish and got on the radio.  I have no idea what prompted that reaction, but it really startled me.  I tried to get the point across that I meant no harm, but it didn't work.  I just walked right by her while she screamed away, left the room, and eventually made my way out of the hotel.  I don't know what I did to set her off like that, but it really shook me up.  Due to that little incident, I have no plans to return and try these elevators again.  It's a shame, too.  As many times as people have visited and filmed the elevators at this hotel, no one (to my knowledge) has ever taken a look at these service elevators before. Follow me on:
