Quality Inn

Kings Mountain, NC
Stayed in Room 102. The room had one bed not two beds. Carpet and chairs were filthy but bed sheets appeared clean. Checked in late and canceled 2nd night after seeing room. Decided to stay that night because of late check in and out of the way location. Woke up with bites all over me. I thought something was biting me. Now I know I did not feel the bites but the after effects of bites. It was late and I tried to stay instead of going out in a poorly lit parking lot. Tried to sleep on top of bed covers. Checked out at 12:30 am after taking shower to get rid of bugs. Talked to the manager next morning and she still wanted me to pay for the room. She said I had used the room and taken a shower. She finally decided not to charge me when I told her about the bugs and taking the shower to get rid of bugs. Left clothes I slept in in the room in a plastic bag for disposal. Still brought the bugs home with me and am still trying to get rid of them. Bed bugs and lice were in the room and came home with me despite all precautions not to bring them in the house. I think they came in on a pocketbook and on me. I took a shower with lice shampoo and bagged my clothes immediately. I have thrown away a mattress and encased another one that will eventually have to go when I get rid of the bugs. I have had to throw out carpet in 4 rooms, two ottomans and a stuffed upholstered chair not to mention pocket books, luggage, clothes and shoes. Laundry has been a nightmare. I have used $50.00 of lice shampoo. Horrible and costly experience. Unlike the pictures on this site I did not break out. The bites just continued to sting like something was still biting me for about 10 days. They felt like they were "firing". The bugs and lice were in my hair. I shook my hair over the kitchen counter and dead bugs feel out. Looked like 1/16 inch long gray/black sliver. I had a few welts on my stomach. The bites did not stop until I encased the mattress I was sleeping on. I also heated the house to as high as it would go on a day that was 103 degrees. And I have spayed with every spray available. I contacted the exterminator and found treatment in this area costs a $1000 to $3500 and only has a 30 day warranty. The bugs can still hatch out after that 30 days. I am making progress. Lucky to live alone and lucky it is a hot summer.
