Bad Times at the El Royale

Factual error: The Father tells Darlene the Ritz-Carlton was booked. But the Ritz was not founded until 1983. (00:45:00 - 00:46:00)

Factual error: The robbery flashback scene is at least 15 years previous to the main story, placing it circa 1953. The big lettering on the armored car uses Helvetica font, which did not exist until 1957.

Continuity mistake: When the singer hits the priest with a bottle and leaves him unconscious, she rushes outside and almost immediately witnesses the FBI guy being shot. Yet in a previous scene the priest is with the hotel worker for a significant amount of time before they also witness the murder.
