Ben Lomond Suites, the largest hotel in Ogden, is a lovely building listed on the National Register of Historic Places. It is a hotel where pets of the four-legged variety are welcome, with an additional fee. What the pets think of the resident ghost, is open to speculation.
A guest at the hotel in the 1940s was a woman whose son was fighting in World War II. She had received word that he had been injured, and awaited further news of his condition. Upon hearing that he had died, she left the hotel for her home. It seems, though, that she can't stay away from the hotel. Room 1106 will call the front desk, even though the room is unoccupied. The elevator will stop at (for example) the fourth floor when nobody has pushed the button for that floor.
Harmless, certainly, though eerie for the desk staff to receive a call from an empty room.
