Live bed bud found on top of bed, with no other signs (such as mattress staining, etc)
Because bed bugs are such a scourge, I wanted to warn other travelers: My husband, toddler, and I attempted to stay here when we were moving out of NYC (we were flying out the next day) but we had to leave at 10 p.m. after I found a live bed bug on the bed. I gave the live bug to the front desk person and she didn't act incredibly surprised, leading me to wonder if the hotel has had bed bug
issues before and perhaps left them unresolved! She was kind and called around to other hotels for rates, and also had the hotel's free shuttle van drive us to our new hotel. (But the hotel did nothing else to compensate for our time or trouble.)
No nearby bug reports
