Roach or bed bug in my bed

My stay was terrible.. I woke up in my bed with a roach crawling on my arm while I was sleeping …. I was so disappointed and disgusted that I immediately took a shower and just sat in the chair for the rest of the night…. I was crazy freaked out …. I demand my money back from this hotel.. immediately
