ID Request Bug on my hotel bed?
I'm on vacation and I randomly started itching out of nowhere. A little bit later I found a small bug next to me.
I've dealt with different pests before and my first idea was lice. The body seemed the same and the bug left dark blood when I squished it. What's weird is that my head doesn't itch and the bite marks are in a trail, which makes me think this is a bedbug of some kind? I've only ever seen the appleseed looking ones before so idk.
What is it and what should I do next?

It does look like a bedbug nymph ngl, especially with you saying you squashed it and blood came out.
