After a scary experience at a hotel stay a hospitality expert has shared the first thing she does when checking into a new room.
Sharing her tips to the TikTok channel @Haleewithaflair, hotel worker Halle recently advised a pair of guests who complained of being caught out by a bedbug infestation that there's one way to avoid the unpleasant surprise.
Travellers Matt & Abby complained that they had woken up in their hotel with an infestation of biting bugs and had the "scars to prove it".
Once bitten, twice shy - Halee says she had also come across the unwelcome bugs in her travels.
"I've been working in the hotel industry for 15 years and I own a hotel sales support company. This is how I check my rooms before I get unpacked and settled in," she said.
