A couple was charged Thursday with 20 violations of various city codes for maintaining slum conditions at a Central City hotel they own.

Robert K. Swan, 60, and his wife, Konstanza, 56, of Pasadena face a pending arraignment in Los Angeles Municipal Court.

Deputy City Atty. Richard Bobb said the misdemeanor charges stem from sub-standard conditions at their four-story, 68-room hotel at 560 S. Gladys Ave.
