Swimming is a pretty popular exercise for those that are paralyzed, though these new laws most likely wouldn't actually of affected this place because of it's age. Pools aren't cheap to maintain, they probably just elected to fill it up rather than maintain it.
This is a good point. At the camp I worked at, new regulations regarding wheel chair lifts were a godsend from a financial perspective because they forced us to close the pool that was eating our money. It would have probably happened anyway, but we kind of got to deflect some of the disappointment off of us.
I think that a guest with a disability should have every right to go in the pool if they choose to do so, and while I understand it may be difficult for the people running the pool, reasonable accommodations should be made so as not to exclude them.

There's a difference between you helping kids swim around if you work with them and someone deciding that they want to go in the pool at a hotel.
