“I was put in a boxy single hotel room at the end of a corridor, which I remember being cold and damp. A few days later I had bites – in a line, in threes. A GP friend said ‘that’s bed bugs’. Then I had an allergic reaction. It was horrible, and it took many weeks for the scars to disappear.”
The hotel in question was in London, not Paris – but the experience literally scarred this traveller. The US Centers for Disease Control (CDC), says: “Bedbugs, a problem worldwide, are resurging.”
