Described as looking nervous and unsettled, some say that she looks and acts like she doesn’t belong in the hotel. Many describe her as wearing a dress from the 1940s or early 1950s. Though no one knows who she is, some think she might be a woman who stayed in the hotel with her lover or spouse prior to the man shipping off to World War II. If he never came back from the war, it might explain why she came back to the hotel where they were so happy together and why she seems so confused.

Are there any other ghosts besides the two ladies and the phantom audience that have their “parties”?
I stayed on the 6 floor in the corner. Heard low to high banging noise on a specific wall the other side of that wall was a separate parking garage 6 ft away from each other. I was told there no way I could’ve heard a noise from the garage how far it is from my room. I then googled the hotel and this website popped up.
Interesting because I am staying in the same room and exactly at midnight last night I heard the same thing. I was just in a light sleep and awoke. It sounded like it was coming from the corner of the room. I told the spirit to leave so I could sleep and I did not have any other disturbances. It was really strange. I stayed here in the same room (611) in 2017 and each morning the closet door was wide open when I made sure it was completely closed. I never felt threatened so it isn’t a mean ghost.
Stayed lastnighy in 202. Around 1030 I saw a white figure walk behind my gf. The was knocks on the closet door.
I worked there as a banquet cook/chef and was going downstairs to the bottom near banquet storage and heard a kid or baby crying then to my left I heard what sounds like ” are you ready” so I took three pics. in the second pic is what looks like a ghostly little girl poking her head out with a left sided distorted face. wish I could post those pics
