I left this holiday in Bodrum with an additional 511euro of medical bill, mentally and physically scarred. Stayed a total of 7 nights (room no.III 4nights, room no.I 3nights) but the last 3 nights was nightmare. At around 4/5am, my sleep was distrupted by serious insect bites. At first, I thought It was simply a nasty mosquito bite but my frequent visit at the pharmacy prompted me to show it to the staff working there. I was horrified to be told that it is not mosquito but something else. Some animals that come from wood or mattress. I live in the tropics and have had dengue fever before but the insect bites I experienced was unimaginably bad. I was dearly worried for my health. I recorded few pictures of my body and sent it to the lady host. One of the staff said, it is from spider!! I spoke to the property owner Basir who also giggled and saying that this is simply an allergic reaction and that they know the origin of this animal. Worst is, the owner was being defensive and started the blaming game by saying I brought the insects or contracted it elsewhere. In my opinion, the owner should have taken this matter seriously as this event clearly happened during my sleep and in their property. Regardless of all, I felt that my health and safety was not their priority hence my issue was taken lightly. Fatigue from lack of sleep and the hospital drip made it difficult for me to defend myself. I hope this review creates awareness.
