I wanted to share my experience so future guests can make an informed decision.
Unfortunately, during my stay I experienced what appeared to be bed bug bites. Looking back, I noticed a dead insect on the floor when I first entered the apartment on day one, but because it was dead and I could not find anything in or around the bed, I did not think much of it. When I started getting bites from the first day of my stay, my father and I assumed they were mosquito bites since I was training daily on grass fields outdoors.
As the bites continued, I investigated further and eventually found additional insects behind the headboard of the bed. This was not an area that appeared to be regularly inspected during cleaning, and it was the discovery that convinced me the bites were not coming from mosquitoes. I reported the issue as soon as I understood what was likely causing it.
The property’s response was that I likely brought the bed bugs with me from my flight because I did not make a complaint until the 11th day of my stay. While I understand their perspective, the delay in reporting was because I genuinely did not realize what was causing the bites at first. The bites began from the first day of my stay, and it took time to identify the source because there was no obvious evidence in the mattress area initially.
I requested a refund due to the situation, but the request was denied by both the property and later through the property’s dispute process. Expedia d
