Optional Conversation 16
Now, walk across the plank and head inside the hotel lobby. On the left side, you’ll find an espresso machine. Interact with it to get optional conversation 16.
You should have passed a ladder on your way over there. Pick up the ladder and place it on the opposite side of the scaffolding. Up top are some parts. Now pick it up again and place it near the yellow “Hard Hat Area” sign. Climb the ladder and go right. Shimmy your way across a narrow ledge.
Artifact 39—Note to Staff
At the end of the hall, you’ll find artifact 39—Note to Staff—before going around the right corner. This note contains the combination to a nearby safe which is 22-10-56.
Safe
Drop down and head to the reception desk. In the employee area, you’ll find a safe.
Training Manual 3—Shiv: Reinforcement
Inside the safe, you’ll find training manual 3—Shiv: Reinforcement. This allows the shivs to be used 3 times before breaking.
Jokes 4
Now, climb back up and wait near Ellie. After a while, she’ll whip out her pun book.
Optional Conversation 17
Head left and climb up the stairs. In this next area, there are a ton of enemies. As usual, sneak or fight them however you want. On the second floor, look for a bathtub with 2 corpses. Ellie will want to have optional conversation 17 about it.
Behind you, in a drawer, are supplements. Next to the bathroom is a room with a giant hole in it. On the other side of the hole are parts. On this same floor, look for a room that leads to an outside area. In the room is a drawer with some parts in it. In a nearby bathroom are some supplements.
Now continue down the hallway and up the stairs on your left. At the top of the stairs, you’ll find an elevator.
⚠️Caution⚠️
Make sure you craft as much as you can before you boost Ellie up. In a moment, you’ll be in a situation where you can’t craft anything and there’ll be a ton of supplies around. So go ahead and empty your crafting inventory as much as possible now so you can grab more supplies later.
Go in the next room and turn right. There should be a door to your right that leads to a room with supplies and a dead end. Get them if you need them and then come back here. Continue straight. Ignore the door right in front of you as it leads to a dead end and instead go around to the right.
In the next area, a light should fall down as you enter the stairwell. Dive under the surface. Work your way through a room with floating corpses. Once you emerge, head right into a room where you’ll find supplies and parts. Backtrack and head towards the other door. It’s blocked off but you can swim underneath it. Dive and then head through the door on your right. Make a left and then float up to the surface.
Once you exit the water, there’s a locker that you can open. In the next area, a swarm of rats will run towards you but they’ll split left and right into some doors and pose no harm to Joel. Check both rooms for supplies and then head up the ramp made out of collapsed rubble.
At the top of the rubble, turn right and go through the first door. Inside this room is a cabinet with parts. Now look for a double door opening.
Artifact 40—Hotel Keycard
Across the hallway is a control room. On the control panel is artifact 40—Hotel Keycard.
Tip
Infected will spawn as soon as you grab it so be careful so back yourself into a corner and take them out the shotgun.
With the hotel keycard in hand, follow the red and yellow wires downstairs to a generator.
⚠️Caution⚠️
When the generator starts up more infected will appear. You have everything you need in this area so there’s no point in killing the infected. The exit is the upstairs pass where you got the keycard. You have to attempt to push the door open, then use the keycard in the slot. If you’re unlucky, the infected will try to attack you while opening the door. They usually take a while before attacking so run to the door as soon as you crank the generator.
Workbench 4
Once in the stairwell, head up stairs. At the top are some rooms with goodies. The second door on the right has supplements, parts, and workbench 4. Exit the hallway in a large kitchen. There will be a gun fight but don’t worry, they’re not shooting at you.
You have to kill the four guys in this area in order to proceed. Grab the first guy and drag him to the cooler behind you and choke him out there. There are supplies and parts in the cooler. On the other side of the room, on the right side are parts in a booth.
When you’re ready to leave, find the ladder and place it next to the wall by the pool of water. At the top, there’s nothing in the first room so just keep going but once you leave the room, turn left into another room. There’s a big hole in the floor. Shimmy your way around via the right side.
Comic 3—Accretion
On the other side are parts on a table and comic 3—Accretion.
There are supplies by the bar. Now, head down stairs. At the bottom, turn left into the men’s bathroom for some supplies.
Firefly Pendant 12—Colby Reed
In the woman’s bathroom, you’ll find firefly pendant 12—Colby Reed.
There are some in the big open area to the right farther down the hall in some drawers.
Training Manual 4—Melee: Knots
Continue and you’ll find training manual 4—Melee: Knots—laying on a table in the middle of the hallway. It’s difficult to miss.
Optional Conversation 18
Go down the hallway and take the door on the right to find yourself in a small concert hall. At the back of the room is a photoshoot area. There are some parts around the base and if you wait around long enough, Ellie will have optional conversation 18 with you.
You can interact with the piano on stage for fun but to continue you need to move it up against the wall. Head all the way around to the other side of the building for supplies and parts.
The next room has nothing important so jump out the window onto some scaffolding and enjoy the end of the subchapter.
