My itenery from '98 says I stayed at the aida opera house hotel. I've been trying to remember if that is actually the hotel we ended up staying at. Did it have a very tiny elevator? Whatever hotel I stayed at was haunted...the lights would flicker on and off in different corridors. In the middle of the night I heard school children running in the hallways and a woman speaking french..but all the sounds were hazy. I was wondering if anyone else had this experience.
Report Abuse
The elevator was very small. There was hardly enough room for 2 people, much less people with luggage. As far as the haunting aspect of it, we didn't have that experience. I wish I would have known about that ahead of time. We would have been more cognizant of it.
