Bed Bugs and being Trapped
I stayed with my Boyfriend and his parents from 7/29/12-8/3/12. First off, this place is in the middle of nowhere, so if you stay, make sure you have a car and GPS. The place is Gigantic and has very little parking. You have to walk between 300-600 feet uphill just to get to the front entrance from the parking lot. Once you've made it in doors, you then have to navigate your way through the massive hotel looking for your room. when we got our room we had a King size bed with a pull out couch for 4 adults???? We had asked for 2 doubles since the rooms are too small for two queens.....Once they changed our room for us, we noticed the safe didn't work and they could not change our room again due to being all booked up. So we ended up carring our valuables around with us all day or having someone stay behind to guard the goods. Since we were in such a remote area, we felt pressured in buying the hotels aweful, highly expensive food. The best place to eat was the Starbucks who had pre-made refrigerated wraps for $7. Oh by the way, the Starbucks is only open till like 3 or 4pm so if you want good coffee since the hotels suck, get your coffee early and stock-up! Now, after spending a week here, I couldn't wait to get home! Until I noticed the bed bug bites on my foot, hand, arm, leg and elbows starting to appear. I had never been bitten by them before and had a minor allergic reaction that caused me to itch all over including the inside of my ears and my eyeballs even felt like they itched. I took some extra strength antihistamine which seemed to help till the next day at least. I now had to check my entire home to make sure none came back with us in our luggage. The nightmare never seemed to end! Oh and it's been almost a month since we came back and some of the bites still itch and are still visible!
