This place is EXACTLY like the Holland Hotel in Alpine because the El Capitan and Holland hotels were designed by Trost & Trost. In this hotel, they have installed a new elevator due to the lack of ADA compliance before 2009.

I found these elevators at a parking garage right by the Tobin Center and to my surprise, they were brand new Otises. I am so happy I found those in downtown San Antonio.
These elevators are behind a locked glass door. You have to have a key card, or your room key if you know what I mean. Fortunately, I ditched the keyreader and I was able to get in and ride these elevators.
Type: Otis (modernised by Schindler w/ MAD BS Moon buttons)

Service Elevator
This is an insanely grotty and scary service elevator in every nook and cranny from this hotel. I found one of them.
