When you see an Old, Vintage, Hilariously Outdated Motel like this one, that advertises they have elevators, you know they have to have something good!!! And this place is NO EXCEPTION!!! Built back in 1975, this place has received little to no renovations at all since being built and opening, and it features LOTS of VERY 70s Charm and advertises having elevators and Color TVs, etc., yet it is well rated on TripAdvisor, so I'd probably recommend this place as it seems well maintained and in good condition, as long as you don't mind the very 60s/70s feel the place has!!! And the 70s charm and originality this old motel features does include some 1975 Otis Lexan Hydraulic Elevators!!!! Both of which have EPIC RELAYS, LOUD EPIC MOTORS (Especially the first one I ride in the video, it features my favorite old school Otis hydraulic motor!), VERY RETRO CABS that are ORIGINAL, and are in MINT CONDITION, and the first elevator I rode had a Almost Fully WORKING NIXIE TUBE INDICATOR!!! SUPER RARE TO SEE A NIXIE TUBE INDICATOR, ESPECIALLY, WORKING!!! These also ran like new and were SUPER SMOOTH and were as I said nearly in Mint Condition, and hopefully remain that way for many years to come!!! That all being said, let's take a trip back in time to the 70s, and ride these AMAZING, BEAUTIFUL, EPIC Elevators!!!!!
