The constant influx of guests in and out of hotels and motels provide bed bugs with a steady source of human blood – their meal of preference. Why do bed bugs thrive in hotels and motels?

Some of these hiding spots include beds, bed frames, couches, sofas, chairs, carpets, rugs, and drawers, for example.

Can I Sue Sleep Inn for Bed Bugs?

All hotels and motels have a specific duty of care to promote the safety of their guests. To promote guest safety, they must ensure that they address any potential hazards that could be harmful for guests.
