Well after 30+ years and several thousand nights my DW and I had our first experience with the dreaded bedbugs at a Fort Lauderdale area hotel. Always a fussy traveller we carefully inspect each room upon arrival. Nothing was found out of the ordinary except the a/c didn't work. We moved to another room - 1st strike. After a long day we turned in early, only to be awakened by something in the bed. My DW shot up and covers flew everywhere. We found a small bug which we dismissed and turned on the TV. A few minutes later she observed another bug crawling along the sheet. Sure enough a bedbug - thanks to google research. The evidence was submitted to the front desk who offered no resistance and immediately issued a credit - makes me wonder. We spent the rest of the night in our third room with the lights on and DW doing inspections on the quarter hour.
My take away -a nice clean looking hotel doesn't mean much. I guess it was bound to happen sooner or later. Maybe we'll take another look at going back to RVing again
