Multiple outlets report that Rome is ranked among Europe’s worst cities for guest complaints related to bed bugs and dirty mattresses. The articles say the ranking is based on aggregated hotel review and complaint data used to compare destinations across Europe, with Rome placed at the bottom of the list for these specific concerns.
The coverage frames the findings as a practical warning for travellers planning trips during the summer season, encouraging readers to check hotel reviews more carefully before booking. While the articles focus on bed bug complaints and mattress cleanliness, they do not provide detailed methodology in the excerpts beyond noting that the ranking reflects patterns in reported guest experiences. They also do not specify whether Rome’s position reflects a single hotel, a broader hospitality issue, or reporting differences across cities.
Overall, the sources agree that Rome receives especially poor ratings or complaint indicators for bed bugs and dirty mattresses compared with other European destinations, and that travellers are advised to verify accommodation conditions through recent reviews.
