I have always stayed at Comfort Inns in Wisconsin and enjoyed my time there. I had to book a hotel for two weeks in Alton, so naturally I chose Comfort Inn. After my second night there, I noticed bites on my neck. Every day after that I notice more bites. Saturday night I notified the front desk that I am pretty sure my room has bed bugs. Someone from the front desk came up to look at my bites and apologized. He gave me a new key for a new room. By Monday morning I had to go to the walk-in clinic and get a steroid shot because my body became allergic to the bites. The hospital I was doing my training at had to call infection control in, as a precaution to make sure nothing travelled in with me. When I was finally able to check out, the person at the front desk asked me how my stay was. I responded "itchy". She asked me why, and I had said that my room was changed a week ago due to bed bugs. She said that no one had reported that room and they have been having guests stay in that room after Saturday. To me, that is absolutely unacceptable. It's one thing that I got over 70 bites, but they didn't do ANYTHING when it was brought to their attention. I truly hope they will take bed bugs more seriously in the future.
