Bed bugs

I know it was reported as being recent but our family stayed here in October. We would book again in the future but are trying a different hotel next time to experience what the others are like.

There's not a single person that could convince me to stay here. Even if I had to pay $300/night somewhere else. Money would not be a factor. Yes they can be anywhere but we know they were here RECENTLY and we know they are hard to get rid of. Run!

I don't think anyone is trying to convince you to stay there though, they are just trying to give the OP more information on the subject. Perhaps $ is a factor for some people though. I appreciate your opinion but I think it's unfair for the property to get labeled when every place in the area has had this happen. I know I'd hate it if I owned a hotel and people stayed away because someone left bed bugs behind and I had to outlay much expense to remedy the situation.

Okay...so someone spends time sitting in various airport seats, then on an actual airplane seat, puts their carry-on in an overhead bin with other luggage, meanwhile their luggage travels with hundreds of other suitcases, they take a shuttle from the airport to the hotel...and they're scared of a bedbug report in a hotel?

Let's up the hysteria- we get sniffer dogs through our store every other month (they're so cute, Princess and Baron) and more than pillows, clothes and bedding, they usually find traces in dresser drawers and picture frames.

Also, people use 'bedbug' to describe every creepie-crawlie. The could be beetles or dust mites. People who find bugs in hotel rooms are instant entemologists. Yes, bedbugs are distinctive looking but a lot of people don't stop to look.

It's just like when people hear of mould in a house/school etc, they immediately say 'black mould' because it's worst-case scenario.
