We stayed at the Days in, 4617 Scottsville Rd Bowling green, Ky 42104. I sent this to their eanagmr and also the head quartersI have to tell you that your Hotel is DISGUSTING.. my friend and I tried to stay there the night of Sept 1 in rooms 225 and 231 and BOTH of those rooms had bed bugs. I have stayed in plenty of Days Inns to know that that is not appropriate for the name. Granted you didn’t charge us, but we had stopped that night early (6:00 p.m.) so we could get a good nights sleep for a long trip the next day. We settled down and I had bugs crawling on me, so we requested another room. Before we settled in I checked it out and sure enough there were bed bugs in that room also. By the time we checked out of your nasty place and checked into another hotel and settled down to sleep it was 11:00. Thank you for a nice relaxing time, THAT WAS SARCASM!!And you can be sure that I will pass this e-mail onto EVERYONE that I know. I know that it doesn’t mean anything to you, but it will make me feel better. Even if I can save one person a night in your hotel, I will feel better
