MIP: EPIC Otis Series 1/Compass + passenger & Series 1 west service elevators @ The Grand Miami, FL

Enjoy 2 minutes & 3 seconds of me not knowing how to use the Compass system. These elevators are fun as fuck. They kept 3 Series 1s original when I was here which I’m very glad about. I’m obsessed with the Compass chime & these in fact are my 1st ever Otis Compass. I also adore that Series 1 chime. Sadly 3 months later the Series 1s were no more.

I’m definitely going to have to come here, is there security in this building?

Lol when I was here today I kept trying to put LP but when I pressed L, it says please present security credential before I could press P

To use the new elevators Otis Compass, you need to be a hotel guest and you need the hotel card.

[BananaRyanNYC]

when you go down the lobby you just press L not LP

I hate this Otis Compass 360 elevators. Do not modernize the original elevators
