RE: Travel horror stories: Getting eaten alive by bedbugs and having the staff blame you for it

in TravelFeed8 months ago

I will look next time I travel as I have never had problems besides a terrible mattress. I am sure this is more common than we think because we know hotels are all about profit and probably only change the beds every few years.

Sort:  

well the thing is that even if they do change the mattress, that is just going to give a new home to the bugs. There is a misconception that bed bugs only live in beds but this is far from the truth. They live everywhere and there appears to be a pecking order as far as the prestigious areas near the food source is concerned... but they can live anywhere, in anything. Changing a bed doesn't change a damn thing other than who the bug-king is... if that makes any sense.
