Seven Las Vegas Strip hotels popular among tourists and entertainment seekers have attracted some unwelcome pests over the past year and-a-half: bedbugs.
KLASThe hotels include Circus Circus, Caesars Palace, Planet Hollywood, Palazzo, Tropicana, MGM Grand, and Sahara, records obtained by CBS MoneyWatch indicate.
At Circus Circus, bedbugs were found in a guest room in January 2022 after a guest complained that they had been bitten. Bedbugs were detected again in June, in response to a second guest complaint. At the Tropicana Las Vegas, a guest who visited in late January 2023 said they found bedbugs in their room and were subsequently transferred to another room. After the original room was treated, it was rented out again, according to the complaint.
An MGM Resorts International spokesperson confirmed a single bedbug incident, but said it took place more than one year ago. Its protocol for responding to bedbug complaints involves moving the guest to a new room and closing off the room from which the complain originated. A third-party expert then inspects the guest quarters. When bedbugs are determined to be present, the room in question as well as surrounding rooms are cleaned to eradicate the bugs.
That includes pulling back the bedsheets and inspecting mattress seams for stains or spots indicating that bedbugs are present. The bloodsucking critters can also hide behind the headboard and in sofas and chairs.
