"We had to leave this property early because of evidence of bed bugs. My son and I had bug bites all over and then found evidence of bed bugs on the mattress. At first the rental company, Zindis gave us a refund for the night we left early and were helpful to talk to. However, after I learned the implications of making sure we do not carry the infestation home (many encouraged just throw away all luggage/clothing) and called back wanting a full refund, they ghosted me.
