Some reviewers specifically contrast the odor experience with other facilities they have seen, describing Elan as noticeably different.

Several reviewers describe the meals and dining experience in positive terms, including food that is enjoyed and a dining room that feels like a restaurant rather than a cafeteria. A few reviews also mention variety (including choices and different cuisines) and a professional chef.

A number of reviews express concern that pricing is expensive compared with expectations or other options.
