SAN ANTONIO A man staying in an East side motel last month had some unwanted guests.

Tony Sabbs said he was bitten by bed bugs on his second night of staying at Motel 6 San Antonio East on 138 N W.W. White Rd.

It felt like something was crawling on you, Sabbs said. I felt something stinging my arm, slapped it, and saw another on the bed.

After snapping a few photos (above), Sabbs alerted two housekeepers and the front desk, who notified him they would call an exterminator.

Our staff works diligently to check for signs of bed bugs regularly, and we have procedures for handling suspected and reported bed bug cases at Motel 6, said Raiza Rehkoff, spokeswoman for the company. Motel 6 staff followed protocol precisely by immediately shutting down the room in question. The room was taken out service, inspected and treated.

Rehkoff said the room, number 237, was reinstated for service March 31 after it was treated.

In addition, the guest requested and was issued a refund, she said. Please know that the hotel industry is on high alert regarding bed bugs, and we are diligent in monitoring our rooms in order to address, treat and terminate any issues that have been raised to our attention.
