Beware the Comfort Suites with Bed Bugs – Video

Posted on February 3, 2012 by admin Click Here For Article

31-10-2011 13:37 There are bed bugs in the Comfort Suites, 5220 Huberville Avenue, Dayton, OH. woke up to find bed bugs in my bed in room 324. The front desk staff looked at the bed bugs and insisted that this has never occurred at this hotel before. I was moved to another room. The owner/manager of this hotel was very unprofessional in discussing this issue. He refused to refund the entire room fee, saying that he would give me 50% of the refund as he "needed to be sure if the bugs that were found in the room were supposed to be there." What bugs are supposed to be in your bed? He also seemed extremely inconsiderate when I informed him about the clothes I had to throw away (as they were stained with bed bugs), the additional laundry I had to do, and the fact that I went to the emergency room. He didn't apologize once when I called him, said that he would not reimburse me for any of my items that were lost due to bed bugs, and had the nerve to hang up on me. The Air Force put me at this hotel because I was at Wright-Patterson AFB for training the next few days. Fortunately, I was able to inform the base about my experience and see their doctors during my emergency room visit. They subsequently initiated a public health inspection and found this hotel "not be recommended to be continued on contract quarters." Therefore, the Air Force will not be using this hotel to house its airmen when the on-base quarters are unavailable. Also, Montgomery County was also notified about the bed bugs ...

Toronto woman recounts vacation nightmare in Cuba

Posted on February 2, 2012 by toronto Click Here For Article

A Toronto woman has nothing but sympathy for Canadian travellers who recently returned from a disastrous trip to Cuba.

Sasha Hernandez told CityNews she returned from a birthday vacation to Holguin covered in bed bug bites, and required medical attention that cost her hundreds.

Hernandez and her boyfriend took a Nolitours vacation to Blau Costa Verde beach resort earlier this month. She said bed bugs at the resort are to blame.

The couple flew Air Transat, the same airline where 14 passengers fell ill on a flight from Cuba to Toronto on Friday.

Hernandez didn’t have any problems with the flight. Her problems, she says, started at the hotel.

“On the second night I got my first few bites. I assumed they were mosquito bites [but] they swelled up and burned my skin with water bubbles surrounding the core bite which [had pus],” Hernandez wrote in an email to CityNews.

By the third day, Hernandez needed medical attention. She was charged for her gauze and Band-Aids.

The bites were so bad she couldn’t sleep at night, and she couldn’t sit in the sun during the day.

Finally, she and her boyfriend checked their beds:  Hernandez said there were around 25 dead bed bugs on her bed, and five on her boyfriend’s bed.

A maid came to change the bedding, and Hernandez went to the doctor again. She was charged for calamine lotion and an anti-histamine shot.

By the next morning, they were ready to leave. A representative from the hotel offered Hernandez a massage, which she declined because of the numerous bug bites. He then offered her a lobster dinner, which she also declined.

She and her boyfriend returned to Canada on Jan. 12. By the time the flight landed, Hernandez said, her body was so swollen she had to go the hospital immediately.

Once again, she was charged for her medication.

“A lobster is not going to cut it,” Hernandez wrote.

Hernandez said travellers to Cuba need to be extra cautious.

Another Toronto woman, Denise Robertson, says she contracted the Norwalk virus shortly after landing in Holguin Cuba recently.

"It just came on very quickly, vomiting really badly, diarrhea, fever, and they asked me if I would stay in my room and be quarantined so no one else got it," she said.

Despite the bad press, travel expert Robert Townshend doesn't think tourists will stop vacationing in Cuba.

"It seems that the deals and the prices you get to go to Cuba, outweighs the chance of any kind of illness you could get," he said.
