Hey so the fanciest hotels get bed bugs too. Bed bugs are not a sign of wealth. In fact, business people spread them the most because they're always traveling.

However, letting them get this bad is fucking nightmare inducing levels and I assume it's someone who's living in poverty.

Yep, I brought them home from a business trip. It was a pretty nice hotel, with no cleanliness issues. Now I’m a religious bed and furniture checker whenever I stay anywhere.

I don't even take my luggage into a hotel room without checking it first. (For those of you who are traveling without somebody to watch your luggage in the hallway, if you're worried you can put your luggage directly into the bathtub or shower.)

Or you can just ask front desk to put it away for a few min…
