The parking lot was empty and the lights flickering so that should have been my first clue. I booked this hotel for the entire weekend as I was attending a festival with my family nearby. The room looked outdated but clean upon entry, there was no air conditioning on so the room was stuffy with an odd smell. No big deal I thought, I will just turn on the window unit and put my drinks in the fridge. The fridge was hot inside and covered in mold. Then I hung my clothes up, sat on the bed and the pillows crinkled because they were plastic like the hospital. I shrugged it off and turned on the tv. No cable options were working. I had the choice of dirt bike riding or Cops. Oh well I thought, we are here for 2 nights we can make it work. Then I noticed across the room on the other bed what looked like a brown dot on the white pillow. I was like no, that cannot be right. I assumed it was a spider. Then another appeared and they were the size of a pencil eraser. I started to panic and got up, crossed the room to look, and sure enough they were BEDBUGS. Crawling without a care in the world across the pillows. I immediately packed up and left. Went to the lobby and told the owner who proceeded to tell me that they did not have bedbugs because they “remodeled”. Told him I had pictures, showed him and this man told me that those bugs were “not on the pillows”. Blatantly denied what was looking at him. I offered to walk him right down to the room and show him, he declined and we left.
