Bedbugs!!!

This hotel was dirty! First thing I saw at front reception was a dirty syringe on the counter!! When I got inside the room it was dreadful. Paint cracking off the walls. Dirty carpet and bathroom. Old mattress. I Tried to switch rooms but they denied me! Memorial weekend so everything around area was booked so I decided to tough it out. Before going to sleep I noticed a hole in box spring. I was terrified to sleep. I always check for bed bugs but didn’t see an actual bug. BUT when I woke up in the morning I had BITES all across my stomach and arms. Do not stay here!!
