It was the highest rated hotel in Denver at the time according to their
online ratings and they were next to the US Mint. We wanted to tour the
Mint but changed our plans after the unfortunate encounter with the
disgusting vampire-like blood sucking and diseased bugs. Now we pull all
of the bedding apart and shine a black light around a room before unpacking
our luggage no matter where we stay. The only way to protect yourself is to
wrap yourself up in a mummy type sleeping bag covered in DEET and dispose of
it when your done.

A lot of vendors checked their beds at other hotels that year and couldn't
sleep after observing the tell-tale signs of the little blood suckers in
their rooms.

A women at the Tucson show was covered with bites and welts after sitting on
couch for about a half hour in one of the vendor's rooms. She had no idea
what had attacked her until we pointed it out. The poor woman was allergic
to them so we gave her some antihistamine.

If you find strange red marks or welts after entering a room, then you would
be wise not to bring any items home that were exposed because it could cost
you over $10,000.00 to rid your house of them. We were very fortunate
choosing to leave our cloths and luggage behind after seeing these nasty
things first-hand.
