BEDBUGS!!!!!!!!!

Location was good. House was nice. Except we had BEDBUGS. From first night on. Our check out was saturday. House was sprayed on Thursday. Still woke up Friday morning with more bites, more evidence of bugs in the bed, and large ones under the pillow which were dead but still they were there. Owner has apologized and that’s about all we got. Our vacation was miserable.
