Hotel Bedbugs
I’ve had a lot of visitors ask me if I can do research on infestations at hotels; what they are after is sign that the hotel has had bedbugs in the past. In the past, I do the research and send off an email but I’ve decided to move everything to a page where everyone can read the outcome of my findings.
Hotels, even the best kept hotels in the world, can end up with a bedbug infestation. How the hotel handles complaints and how fast they act to stop the spread of bugs is the most important question.
Unfortunately, there are a number of hotels that place the blame on the visitor rather than pay for treatment. These hotels usually stand out like a sore thumb when doing research.
Perhaps you are concerned about the hotel you’ll be staying at? Perhaps you are one of those unfortunate people who were bitten and would like to verify the hotel’s claim that such a problem has never occurred before? Whatever the case may be, I’ll do my best to research the hotel and provide links to support my findings. We’ve developed a very efficient way of researching hotel bedbug complaints and it’s a completely free service.
How to Check your Hotel for Bedbug Complaints
Simply leave a comment below with the name and address of the hotel you’re concerned with and we’ll take it from there. If you have been bitten and/or can take a picture of the infested hotel room, please send it to us and we’ll try to get it up on the site. Pictures not only serve as evidence, but can also be referred to when dealing with management.

I am a flight attendant who recently stayed at the Drury Suites in Padacah, Ky. When I got up for work last Friday, I was covered in bedbugs. I have over one hundred bites all over my body! I was in room 345. Please check to see if there are any other complaints. I have pictures, not sure how to up-load them on this site??
Hello Jim
We’re planning on bookijng a stay at the Towers on the Grove in Myrtle Beach. Do you have any knowledge of bugs at their facility?
All I’ve been able to read in the reviews is that it is a great place without on negative comment.
Look forward to hearing from you and thanks for all your work.
Stayed at a LaQuinta Inn in Brunswick GA 10 days ago. 36 hours later I awoke with bites all over my feet, legs, thighs and under my bra strap. The next day more appeared on the backs of my legs, two on face and more on my hands.
I am so afraid that I have brought them home. Steamed mattress, washed all clothing and called exterminator to spray the carpets, etc. When will I know if they have followed me home?
The doctor put me on steroids and it has helped, but many of the large marks are still there although the itching has subsided. However, I have been having a crawling sensation on my face and scalp for the past week. Just hoping that it is all im my head from being weirded out about this whole experience.

Just got back from Wolf lodge in PA. Got infected with scabies!!!
Only me neither my wife or kids contracted it. Doctor assumes i got it from sitting on an infected chair in the park. I am not happy but don’t look nearly as bad as that guy in the above photos.
After the first night I awoke in the morning with bites, not really knowing much about bed bugs. After the second night I awoke to many more bites. Some of my bites have given me a very bad allergic reaction others on less sensitive areas are just bites. I have contacted the hotel and they are investigating, waiting to hear from them.
Have you heard or found any other info on this hotel?

Hi Barb,
I don’t maintain a database of bed bug free hotels, but I can run a check on an individual hotel.
What you should do is pick out the hotel you think best meets your needs, then let me know what the name of that hotel is and I’ll do research for reports of bed bugs.
Have a great day!

I am going to asheville sc for 2 nights and I want to know if there are any hotels I should avoid because of recent bed bug infestation. On the nature tv show a woman said she got bed bugs in her suit case and they spread in her home when she returned from her trip to asheville. She did not name the hotel.
Hope you can help.

Would you tell me what you found out concerning bedbugs at Great Wolf Lodge in Poconos? Thanks.
I have a tripped planned next week to Great Wolf Lodge in the Poconos, Pennsylvania, I am concerned because I read a post on tripadvisor, that they have bed bugs, Please advise.
Thanks for all your help.
Some hotels get routinely checked by bed bug sniffing DOGS. Ask your hotels if they do this, and if they do, your chances of getting an infested room are lower because they are proactive about the potential problem and treating before someone complains about bites.
We picked up bed bugs from a hotel and brought them home. My daughter had an allergic reaction. she had about 150 bites just on arms! other parts were bitten too but she had to be seen by docs and get prescriptions. Are there any lawyers that deal with bed bugs in Va? we have to exterminate the home and get rid of our beds and some furniture. this is very costly and the extermination is very extensive. I have gone crazy with this. any suggestions would help. Thanks!
Best western conference center Baltimore MD has bed bugs. I’ve heard from other sites that the inner harbor has 2-3 hotels listed with them. Is there a clean hotel in Baltimore, MD near Johns Hopkins area? I know just because no one has reported it that they can be there. and I know they can be gotten rid of by hotel managers. but what can you do but ask? Thanks
Traveling to Harbour Lights in Myrtle Beach in March and just read a recent review from someone that said they had bed bug bites. Have you heard of anymore stories from this hotel?
My husband and I are traveling to Richmond, VA the third week of February. We are planning on staying at the new Westin Hotel in Richmond. The hotel is about one year old. I have read that the age of a hotel means nothing to a bed bug. Have you heard of any bed bug sightings there? Thank you for your research.
Hello all be aware of the Super 8 in Las Vegas, NV at 4250 Koval Lane. I stayed there 2 full weeks and had 2 cases of bites there. The first case was the first week i had been bitten on the legs and figured it might have been work related due to the nice warm weather that week and actually seeing insects out at our jobsite. Second case was when we were checking out of the hotel and noticed bites on my arms and eyelid, hadn’t worked the day before so it happened while i was sleeping. I called management but got voice mail, so for people going to Las Vegas, NV beware of bedbugs there at the Super 8. Oh yeah the room number was 1101 fyi
I so appreciate the time and effort you have put into helping people with this problem. I travel to Pittsburgh several times a year and have stayed at the Holiday Inn at Lytton Avenue, and at the Shadyside Suites.on Fifth Avenue. The suites are comfortable but musty and not particularly clean. Just wondering if you have any reports of bedbug problems at either one of those locations. thank you
My name is Richard M and I am a victim of Bed Bug Bites from the Imperial Palace in Las Vegas Nevada. I stayed in room 3114 for the New Years from 12/30/09 to 1/2/10 and checked out 1/3/10. I did some research and also found other cases reported of Bed Bug Bites from Imperial Palace, and I have also included pictures of my Bed Bug Bites.
This hotel should be held accountable for their failure to deal with the bug problem. There are reports going as far back as 2006! I was viciously attached by bed bugs at the Imperial Palace. I had over 50 bites per arm! Many bites on my back. I also had bites both in front and back of legs. I ended up at Kaiser Permanente Hospital on Jan 6 2010 in Urgent Care. I was prescribed Antibiotic and Anti Itching medicine as shown in photo. I also missed two days of work. Please let me know what you can do for me and If you have any other questions contact me via email. Thank You.

Inquiring on any bed bug claims filed for Hyatt Regency In Chicago on Wacker Ave?
Stayed in 2 hotels Crowne Plaza, Williamsburg, VA and VA Beach Reseort in Virginia Beach, VA a months ago and had preliminary “itching” for almost three months before a full breakout, and now have doctor diagnosed bedbites and had to have everything exterminated. Even though the exterminator said we caught them early, could it have come from either of those hotels as far back as mid-end of June?
Thank you!
Hi. were there any bedbug complaiints in 2009 for the Great Wolf Lodge. I came up with only 2008
Not about bedbugs, but just as ANNOYING…My 13 year old, home educated, son, ( I say this because I know EXACTLY where the head lice came from), has had head lice since we stayed at a Marriott Hotel in Savannah, GA. Hotels need to STOP putting decorative pillows on beds, START washing the bedspreads after every change of use, vacuuming the cloth couches and chairs, (or wiping down the ones that aren’t), after EVERY change of use, and they should also spray down the entire room with LYSOL after every change of use. Hotels make a lot of money.
It is high time they start using some of it to protect it’s patrons from bed bugs, head lice, etc. That hotel was sort of seedy for a vacation hot spot near the water and it did not come cheap, but it was inexpensive compared to what I have had to spend trying to get rid of the head lice. It has cost me a small fortune in shampoos, doctor visits, water, detergent, hot water for washing, carpet cleaning and the electricity cost to do all of that, not to mention the time and energy it takes to get rid of the pests.
ALSO, it has been very embarrassing to have to explain to family members WHY you can’t come to visit or to have to tell anyone that you DID visit without the knowledge of contamination that they too may have head lice infestation in their house. ONE NIGHT in a hotel room has cost me plenty and it was not even worth it, believe me.
Update:
I do this research on my spare time at my own cost – Until Feb 2010, I will be unable to process any requests.
Feel free to submit your request, but please understand that it will not be processed until then.
Thank you,

We got bed bugs when we stayed for one week in August.2009 My wife still has the bites
and has had to get medical treatment. We were too embarrassed to say anything before
about this, but it should be reported.
Thanks
I am planning to stay in a hotel in South Beach, MIami Florida and wanted to know if you can check to see if the Royal Palms Hotel on 14th and Collins Ave, the Lowes Hotel on 15th and Collins, the Ritz Carlton South Beach, Eden Roc, Fountainblu have any incidents of bed bugs.
I am terrified of this as a relative of mine brought them to his house from a trip to a hotel and it was an absolute problem for the family.
Please I need info right away as I need to finalize the reservation.
Thank you.

What actions can i take against the motel ? Thank you
Hi Becky,
That looks awful and the fact that you have documentation and confirmed bed bugs problems in the past, I’m most confident you’ll get your $1,000 and more if you hire an attorney.
The attorney will simply add their fee to what you want and sue for the entire amount.
If you want an aggressive attorney, talk with Renee at lawref@lawrefs.com
Good luck and please, let us know how everything turns out!

On 11/1/09 I was bitten by bed bugs dozens of times at the Super 8 – Bonner Springs, Kansas, owned by Hinz Hotels LLC. When I reported the incident to the manager and gave him a live bug in a plastic cup, he filled out a report, but did not apologize. I’ve included pictures of the bed bug bites below.
I was given no information about how to avoid infesting my home or other hotel rooms. I contacted the state inspector and he confirmed bedbugs in room 406 and 404. He said that he cited the hotel for not reporting the infestation. I waited to hear from the owner and finally emailed them.
I received a call and an apology 18 days after I checked out. I was offered $350 in compensation and I told them I thought $1000 was more realistic compensation for my week of misery. I was told they’d check with their insurance company and call me back. That was over two weeks ago.
Can you do a check on complaints at Hedonism 2 in Negril Jamaica

Hi there:
I read on line about bedbugs at the Hilton Carillon park in St. Petersburg Florida after I booked a room for a week. After learning this, I called the hotel and they told me it was an upset guest. Do you find anything on this hotel?
Thanks
My husband woke up with bed bug bites after staying at the Sahara in Las Vegas.
We did not know what they were until a week later when they were confirmed by a doctor. What can we do at this point. Is it to late to report. It is causing me a lot of stress. I am worried we brought them home. I have not seen any signs of them yet. How long does it usually take to know if you brought them home with you.
We are planning to stay at the Hyatt Regency, 400 SE 2nd Ave., Miami, and would like to know if there has been any reports of bed bugs at this location. thanks
Disgusting! I had a sever case of bedbug bites as shown in the picture below.
I stayed in red roof inn in Saugus Massachusetts. I woke up and found a dab of blood and thought it was from Halloween makeup.
When I got home I started itching and had red bumps. Then the next day I was full blown huge welt like dots in threes all over my arms and legs and itched like crazy.
Went to doctor and called hotel. Manager said he would refund me one night but so far didn’t get it! Also, he checked the bed but I bet not the seams! They had a problem once before that I found out about too. Uck!
I have a question, my daughter and I are staying at a Hotel right now. We have been itching based on some bites that I assumed were mosquitos. Last night, however, I saw some very small bugs crawling in an arm chair, so i began investigating. I found more very small bugs crawling on a night table. I killed several and kept them as samples, but I cant really tell if they look like the comparison bugs in your photos (because they are so small) If they are NOT bed bugs, what else could they be?
i stayed @ the super 8 motel on newbern ave in raleigh n.c. and was nearly eaten alive i recorded the security guy saying he saw the bugs i also recorded the clerk denying me a refund long story short i had to go to the er and be treated what can i do?
Was wondering if Imperial Palace Las Vegas has bedbugs.
I recently stayed at a hotel in Miami where I was woken up in the middle of the night my itchy ankles and what I thought to be mosquito bites. Since I have returned they have spread to other areas of my body. I found complaints online about the hotel and they have denied them saying they were the same person posting lies. What can I do?
We are planning to stay at the Hilton Times Square-234 W. 42nd Street and would like to know if there have been any reports on bed bugs at this location.
We are planning to stay at the Hilton Times Square / 234 W 42nd Street in New York and would like any info. you have on their bed bug situation, if any.
Thanks
Most hotels are starting to “install” mattress protection on their mattresses for bed bugs. I bought the same products at Walmart.com. Just a suggestion!
Dear Jim,
I certainly appreciate your kindness and helping me find more information about Bedbugs at Easyhotel Paddington London. I hope my trip on this December 2009 won’t be an disappointed one! I will be very careful and aware with all of the updated information on this hotel.
Thank you again for your help :)
Hello Tchakka,
Send the pictures to me at badbedbugs@gmail.com and I’ll post them on the site. I’ll also include information on an excellent free legal resource that can arm you with the right tools :)
Best regards,
Jim
Bedbug Update: I’ve uploaded your picture, thank you, and as for the legal resource, I would visit lawrefs.com and ask for help there. It’s a free resource and an excellent place to start. By the way, what is the address of this hotel you were bitten at? I offer a free service where I’ll do a quick custom search looking for previous cases of bedbug complaints at that hotel and report my findings on line. It gives you something to refer to when dealing with management and it enlightens the hotel as to other complaints out there; it’s difficult for the hotel to claim they never had a problem before when they see that :)
Best regards,
Jim
While staying at the Springhill Suites Marriot this weekend. I had the luxury of waking up with open bug bites on my ears (ouch), see picture below.
Immediately I made my way to a General Manager with ears as red as Tomatoes and swollen and also leaking.Mr. James Kinane, Cha was very non sympathetic saying that he has never had this type of complaint in 20yrs. I have pictures, What can I do?
Hi Joel,
Send your pictures and any info about the pictures to badbedbugs@gmail.com and I’ll make sure to get them posted!
Thanks,

Hi,
I am staying at a very high class hotel for 2 months on business(6 weeks left). This week I woke up with several bumps, but thought it was nothing to worry about. The next day I woke up to an incredible itch and found over 100 bites on me.
At first, the hotel insisted they do not have bed bugs, and searched the room and couldn’t find any. I wouldn’t accept that, so I looked a little more and found MANY bed bugs between the box springs and living underneath the box springs. SO even though I told the hotel, and they looked, it would have passed their search. Anyway, I have been moved to another room, but I have had a hyper-allergic reaction to the bites and they have swelled up a lot.
I don’t know how I am gonna stay here for another 6 weeks and I don’t know what else to do. I feel like I am living in hell! Can anyone give me advice? I took pictures and documented the bites.
i am going to Easyhotel Paddington; 10 norfolk place,paddington, london on this December 2009. if anyone have an updated or a recently trip to this hotel before my traveling date, please giving me some further information or reports of “BEDBUG”. i certainly will be appreciated from your kindness all. Thank you so much!

I found two reports on TripAdvisor–one from 08′ and one from last month. Do you think I’m safe? Having nightmares about the possibility already–literally terrified of these things. Will wrapping my suitcase in a clean trash bag each night help prevent taking anything home with me? please advise, I’m leaving Monday.
Are there any reports of bedbugs at the Plaza Pelicanos Grand Beach Resort in Puerta Vallarta, Mexico? The address is Diego Rivera No. 120 Hotel Zone Las Glorias, Puerto Vallarta, Jalisco, Mexico.
I stayed at a Comfort Inn and Suites in Mitchell ND-
I woke up and had an itch on my leg- I showered and was itching everywhere-
I looked in the mirror and my left leg and right arm and right back of my shoulder was attacked by bed bugs- I had a total of 68 bites-
They itch so bad I am in fear of any hotel rooms and I have to travel for my job- I don’t know what to do-
Just experienced bed bugs at the Doubletree Hotel Chicago O’Hare Airport-Rosemont for the first time in my life. There were empty adults and babies all over the bed next to mine. There were fecal spots on the bed skirt near the headboard. They were crawling on the wall. They were everywhere and every size … except for full. (I did some research as soon as I got into my new room.)
I’m so glad that I did not go to bed early and that was up to see them come out. I’m sure they would have made it over to my bed to feast. I switched rooms and the hotel offered to reduce my rate from $189 to $119. They ended up reducing it to $99 (for now.) They did call housekeeping and maintenance to come up to the infested room. Let’s hope they are thorough in their extermination of these little blood suckers!
Update: Sept 25
Hotel management called the next morning. They apologized for my experience and they were very sympathetic with what I must have gone through trying to sleep that night. The hotel ended up waving my room and internet fee for my stay. The gave me a voucher for free breakfast. And, they gave me a gift certificate good for one night’s stay and breakfast. Given the situation, I feel better about how they handled me as a customer, but the experience still creeps me out. They assured me that they cleared the room (mattress) and all and that they would fully exterminate the room.
I would like to know if the Mayflower Hotel and Spa in Miami Fla has had any issues with bed bugs.

Hello SM,
Sounds like a nightmare rather than a storybook vacation!
A quick (I’m rushed today) review of bed bugs at the Swan Resort shows a complaint about bugs on Tripadvisor: see the complaint from ccfamily about bugs under their bed and another by princessjsoiebird who’s daughter was bitten up by bed bugs. and goes on to say “The staff treated my husband and I like we were doing something wrong when we needed a new room key.”
DISboards has a complaint about staying at Disney Swan Resort and the family being bitten up by bed bugs, see:
disboards.com/showthread.php?t=2280235
WFTV has a video about Disney paying a family to not talk about their ordeal with bed bugs, which can be found here:
wftv.com/news/15032105/detail.html
Like I said, this was a very quick review and based upon my experience, that is usually an indication there is a lot more documented complaints out there!
Let us know what happens here. By the way, did you get the name of the manager you were dealing with?
Hello,
I recently encountered bedbugs during a 1 night stay at the Disney Swan in Orlando Florida. I’ve included a photo below.
I even trapped one under a glass on the bed. The hotel staff did everything wrong, from accusing me of bringing them in to leaving us in the room and only removing the linens. Clearly they were attempting to cover it up. We even caught a security guard outside our door listening to our conversations instead of addressing the problem.
The manager on duty would not discuss and kept forwarding our calls to security at the hotel. Finally after we left, we were just about to pull into the driveway, we had a call from the hotel security…… indeed their pest control confirmed bedbugs. Which wasn’t difficult, since I had photos and left a trapped bug on the bed.
Have there been any problems at the Romeoville Illinois Best Western, on Normantown Rd.We stayed there for the weekend and we had two rooms. All three of us have bites on our legs, arms and chest.They look like the pictures on the website. My mother in law saw a Dr. and he said that’s what they looked like. Is there a good way to tell if any came with us?
What a wonderul way to help others in the pursuit of bug and critter incident reports!
Would you be so kind as to say, whether there have been any reported incidents of bed bugs at Thistle Kensington Gardens, 104 Bayswater Road, London W2 3HL.
I just found your site today, but am leaving for London in ten days. Needless to say, I would not be thrilled with this vacation if I were to be bitten by bugs, or if I were to bring back any creepy hitchers? Thanks so much for your time and effort.
Hi Jim,
Is there any reported bed bug problem at Hampden House? The full address is Flat 9 Hampden House, 2 Weymouth Street, London. This is not a hotel but a 3-bedroom apartment for short term stay.
Thanks a lot in advance.

Went to Nashville for a CPC test and stayed in Antioch, Tn. at Country Inn & Suites, 1001 Bell Road 37013. My friends and I had adjoining room and at about 2:oo a.m. they woke me up saying I have bugs in my bed. They were big ones and small ones. There wasn’t any in my room, the manager did make restitution for the two rooms. Though it didn’t make up for just getting an hour and a half sleep and the have to take a 5 1/2 hr. test. Hope I never have to go through that again. Please check for reports on this address.
Hi Lisa,
All the research I have done not only indicated the hotel was bug free, but just about all the reviews that I came across were very positive.
I think you’ll have a good night without a single bed bug bite :)

Hello Janice,
If you are asking about bed bugs at the Hyatt Regency O’Hare at 9300 West Bryn Mawr Avenue, Rosemont, IL 60018, then you should be all set from what I can tell.
I’ve done research on this hotel and coundn’t find any reference to this problem.
Best regards,
Jim
any reports of bedbugs at the Hyatt Regency O’Hare in Chicago? sincere thanks.
Hello Frederic,
I did a very quick check on complaints about the easyHotel for previous issues with bed bugs and found that on June 6th, just_here from Munich, Germany stated on TripAdvisor, that he can not recommend this place. In his complaint, he mentioned that he found bed bugs on his first night and when he complained to management, they were unresponsive and that he had to insist upon a new room.
Please let us know what happens here! Bed bugs don’t mean the hotel is bad, but failure to act upon a bedbug complaint and compensate the visitor for their troubles does. I’ll send you some contact information for the person who made the previous complaint and perhaps you can compare notes…
From the pictures, it looks like the bed bugs had a full meal of you! They look painful and I hope they heal soon!
Best regards,
Jim
Hello,
About 80 bed bug bites on my hands and arm that are getting worse day by day.
I’m asking for refunding of the nights, the doctor and chemistry fees at the very least!
Thanks (an AVOID Easy HOTEL Paddinton in London City)
PS : you can see the damage from photographs of my bed bug bites by clicking on the image above.

My Letter to the hotel on August 20, 2009:
Here is the response from the General Manager at the Hotel:
Can you please check on this hotel and see if there have been other complaints of bed bugs?
Thanks!
I stayed at the Candlewood Suites in Fitchburg/Madison WI! I was attacked and devoured by a bed bug infestation. It is the most excrutiating itching and at times painful experience. I have so many bites my hands are swollen. I hadn’t heard of a problem there before. Is there any info out there on them? I’d like to notify people about it!
Hi Jim,
Can you check on Waikiki Resort on Oahu, Hi? I think they might have bed bugs but I heard they have remodeled the hotel and that is why I had purchased the ticket as I would assume they might not carry those bugs anymore. Please help.
Hello Douglas,
The Hyatt Regency Auckland at Cnr Princes St & Waterloo Quadrant, PO Box 3938, Auckland, New Zealand Tel: +64 9 355 1234 is a 5 star hotel, unfortunatly, I found this:
GALsTucson on July 2, 09 complains of bed bugs, supplied a picture of the bites and woke to numerous lesions.
Management claims they could not find any bed bugs. Customer was not happy with the result.
This was the only complaint I found.
As for your second request, that being Moorings Resort 2152 George Bass Drv
Tomakin NSW 2537, Australia +61 2 4471 7500, I didn’t find any reference to bugs of any kind.
Have a great trip!
Jim
Hello OJ,
Looking at Clarion Inn & Suites on 2227 Old Fort Parkway Murfreesboro, TN 37129
(615) 896-2420 I did find reference on trip advisor to bugs.
On Mar 20, 07, Sahga claims son saw a bug crawling across the bed. No mention if it was a bed bug, but they did complain to management and management was happy to work with them without problems.
Consider the review is two years old and management was understanding. It was the only complaint I could find.
Good luck!
Jim
Hi Terry,

Hello Mary,
You are asking about:
Imperial Palace Hotel & Casino
3535 Las Vegas Boulevard South, Las Vegas, NV 89109 correct?
Trip Advisor had these:
traqt83 on Aug 22, 09 states TERRIBLE-YUCK-TERRIBLE and complains of being bitten by bed bugs and rude staff.
Dory88 on Dec 30, 08 states Nightmare Room… and claims to have woke up in the middle of the night with bed bug bites and that the bed bugs infested her apartment after getting inside her suitcase.
Yahoo Travel had these:
Sharee on 07/08/09 states she was bitten many times by bed bugs.
Yahoo Answers had a question from HHH asking if anyone else had been bitten by bed bugs or roaches due to the number of bumps on the legs.
Yikes! Bed bugs! was posted on Sep 27, 2006 at travelpost.com
There were more reviews but figured that was enough for you :)
Planning a trip to Imperial Palace Hotel and Casino Las Vegas Blvd. Las Vegas NV in October. Been reading reviews about people who have stayed at Imperial Palace having bed bugs. Please check it out for me.
Thanks for your assistance.
Would you please check the Holiday Inn Bangor Maine on Odlin road, my family stayed there about 2 weeks ago, we had 2 different rooms and since coming home have woken up with bites, our 18 months old granddaughter has them the worst.
thank you for any help
Have you had any reports on the Modrian hotel West Ave. Miami. My daughter has been bitten from head to toe. The bites are like small blisters and the walk in clinic doc. said they are probably bed bug bites. thanks for any info.
Any bedbug problems reported at the Clairion in Murfreesboro, Tn?
I will be staying at the Hyatt Regency Auckland Hotel in New Zealand also the The Moorings Resort, George Dass Drive in Tomakin, NSW, Australia and want to know have any cases of BED-BUGS been reported? If yes, please respond.
Thanks,
Douglas.
Any concerns about the Lowell Center in Madison, Wisconsin? It’s right on campus. We are staying there for three nights in August. Heard the Concourse (very expensive) had them – they are right across the street.
Thank you,

Hello,
Can you please check for bed bugs at the Quality Inn at Tiffany Square
1200 Benvenue Road.
Rocky Mount,NC 27804
Thanks!
I spent 10 days at Marydale Retreat Center in Erlanger, KY. I got three bites in a row, just under my bra line that itched like crazy for days and didn’t heal for weeks.
I’ve been home about a month, and though I washed all my clothes and dried on hot and didn’t put suitcases on the bed, etc., I woke up this morning with two bites on my leg.
I was just wondering if you’ve gotten any reports about Marydale.
Hi, Jim. I am considering taking my family to Great Wolf Lodge in VA but I did read some reviews regarding bed bugs. The reviews that I found were dated back in 2007. Is it possible for you to do a search to see if there have been any recent complaints of this nature. Thanks much.
Hello Lorraine,
You can search google, yahoo and msn for any references of bed bugs related to the hotel. When I did my check, I couldn’t find any reference to bed bugs at the Gibson Inn in Apalachicola, FL.
That does not mean they have a clean bill of health or that some visitor didn’t infect that room, just that I couldn’t find any reference to bugs.
Hope that helps and sorry to hear about the bites!
Best regards,
Jim
My friend and i stayed at the Gibson Inn at 51 Ave. C in Apalachicola , Fl, room 213. We slept in twin beds. My friend woke with red bites that we suspect were caused by bed bugs. How can we check this out and know for sure?

Hello Brenda,
I found two hotels with that name and I’m guessing the first is the hotel you’re interested in.
Here are the hotels:

La Conner Channel Lodge & Country Inn

La Conner, WA 98257

I could not find any reference to bedbugs for either hotel – that’s good :)
can you check the sleep inn hotel miami international airport?
Can you tell me anything about the LaConner Country Inn in LaConner, Washington. I stayed there 2 weeks ago and have what look like bedbug bites that showed up approx. 4 – 5 days after I spent one night there.
Thanks, Jim, I will let you know how it goes.
Barbara
Hi Barbara,
Wow, there are a ton of fantastic reviews and I couldn’t find one mention of bed bugs there. I think you’re going to have a great time there!

Let us know how your stay went :)
You are right. Since writing to you I have now decided to stay at the ‘Rubens at the Palace’ unless your research suggests differently.
I do appreciate your efforts.
Barbara
Hello Barbara,
It would be better if you pick out one or two hotels you are considering staying at and then I’ll research those hotels for bedbug infestations.
Best regards,
Jim

Great information on a ‘pesty subject’, thank you!
Could you please do a search for hotels that we are considering for our stay in London next month? The Park Plaza Victoria and the Hilton London Tower are under consideration. I am highly allergic to insect bites and would need to stay on antihistamines for weeks if I get bitten.
Thank you!
Would you please inquire about Super 8 Motel in Mount Jackson, Virginia off of I-81? Any complaints of bedbugs?, Sincerely, Deborah J. Shock

This is very important my mom just had lung cancer (which is in remission) however do to her chemo treatments her white cells will take some time to build back up and we don’t want any thing to make her sick!
Thank you for your time.
Jim:
great website. How about the Great Wolf Lodge in the Poconos. I’ve heard they had a problem, but I also heard they have resolved it? What do I do?
I am running a trip to Great Wolf PA this May 2009 – I have 30 rooms reserved – I heard about the possibility of them having bedbugs – I called the person I booked with and explained my concerns – she had a supervisor call me back and assure me there are not bed bugs – I have found a blog on-line of a complaint of bed bugs in November, 2008 – how can I find out if they are still having this problem – would it be wise for us all to back out?
Please comment as soon as you can – the date is drawing near.
Thanks.
Theresa
Hello Prash,
I’ve searched a large number of sources and came up empty – that’s a good thing :)
From what I see, they have very good reviews as well.
Enjoy your stay!
Jim
Great website. Can you do a hotel check? Sutton Place Hotel Vancouver, 845 Burrard Street. Thanks so much.
