Hotel Tour with BCElevators of Hampton Inn & Suites Greensboro, NC (Coliseum Area)
| The hotel is great & as you can tell in this video, I am super excited (HYPER) about meeting BCElevators. I wasn't paying too close attention to what I was filming at times and so excuse the shaking on those parts. There was also loud music playing in the lobby / pool areas so I put some drown out music on those parts but tried to keep it so you could still hear Trevor & I talking. I also added an excerpt of the tour that the GM Karen Grissom and Sales Manager Rachel Amelkin took us on the first time we visited their hotel which was earlier in the year. For more info on this hotel, check out their FB page at Hampton Inn Greensboro Coliseum Facebook Page | 2013-06-16 18:01:51 |

Very Interesting Find at Hampton Inn&Suites in Raleigh, NC / Crabtree Valley Mall
| Happy Easter to all. Here is a treat I believe you will enjoy. These are very similar to the Otis Gen2 with Machine Roomless Gearless system Elevators at Hampton Inn & Suites in Columbia SC / Fort Jackson but these do have a room that says Elevator Equipment (unlike the ones in SC) & they don't have the machine room on the inner doorframe on level 6 (like the ones in SC do) but they run & look very similar to each other in every other aspect including the fixtues. These were pretty busy today so we didn't get a good long video like we wanted to but when we are back in the Raleigh area - I plan to go back here to ride these again. BTW, this is a very COOL Hampton Inn & Suites. Take a moment to check out my FB page for photos of the hotel - you will not believe the pool set up! You can also check out the website and FB page for the hotel too. See URL links below :)

A 2013 Visit to the Hampton Inn&Suites in Mooresville, NC
| In this video clip - we tour a king whirlpool suite with the general manager Vicky Gunther who recognized me in the lobby of her hotel when mom&I went to check out the renovations that this Hampton Inn&Suites has recently undergone and was very kind to take time out of her busy schedule to give us a tour. This is the first of 2 rooms we toured with Vicky and will become part of the before room renovation series video tour. Vicky told us that they are in the process of getting new furniture for the rooms to go along with the rest of the hotel's new look. We will be going back to get an after room renovation video tour when they are ready. In the next video from this Hampton, we will tour a double queen suite and go on the roof top so stay tuned.... | 2013-03-27 21:15:39 |

Dieselducy's First Ride in Grove Park Inn's Historic Chimney Otis Elevator
| I had to do some audio editing on this clip as the conversation of the first group we went up with did nothing to add to the video so that is why you hear part of a conversation twice. I left the sounds of the elevator in so ya'll could see how smooth and quiet the elevator does run. This elevator was pretty busy and you will be able to tell that sometimes I wasn't paying attention to my filming but overall I think it gives a pretty good impression of Dieselducy's first encounter with this historic elevator. We did get another video of this elevator's twin in the 2nd chimney on Sunday before heading out to go home and it was less busy then so we got a better video of that one and I will be uploading it at some point. These elevators are in Ripley's Believe It Or Not. To find out more info about these elevators, you can check out my earlier video of the operator sharing facts about it.
