APA Hotels Bed Bugs

APA Hotels has over 300 locations in Japan and has recently expanded to the U.S. APA has launched 40 locations in the U.S. and Canada and is growing rapidly.  This award-winning luxury hotel chain serves millions of guests per year.

Despite the luxury, APA hotels are still prone to bed bug infestations. There have been 395 bed bug reports for the APA hotel chain in recent years. No matter the reputation, no hotel is immune to bed bug infestations.

These infestations may be a result of hotel management negligence or insufficient training and inspection protocols that allow infestations to occur.

A bed bug infestation can put a damper on any vacation.

Here are a few tips to avoid that…

Performing an Initial Check for Bed Bugs in APA Hotel Rooms

In order to ensure safety and peace of mind, it’s crucial to perform an initial bed bug check in APA hotel rooms. Bed bugs are visible throughout all stages of their life from eggs to adults, and if they aren’t physically present, you can still see evidence of an infestation in the form of red-colored waste or black ink-dot looking spots that they leave behind in many cases.

Step 1: Inspect the room thoroughly before settling in for your stay.

Be sure to check every inch of the room for bugs.

Step 2: Check for evidence of infestation.

It’s essential to check for any signs of bed bugs. Check for eggs, live bugs, and any forms of waste left behind.

Step 3: Inspect specific locations

Do not settle in before checking the bed bug hot spots.

These common spots include:

  • bed sheets
  • mattress seams
  • under the mattress
  • behind baseboards and headboards
  • all other furniture

Step 4: If you find bed bugs, notify management

First, document the infestation by taking photographs of all evidence found. Take photographs not just of the bed bugs but also any fecal stains, nests, and shell casings found. Look to book another room or check out of the hotel completely.

If booking another room in the same hotel, be sure it’s in an uninfested part of the hotel. You’re better off booking a room in a different hotel. This way you’re guaranteed to be safe from encountering another infestation in an APA hotel room.
