She is said to be very worried that there may be a video on the internet or elsewhere of her taking a shower. The camera was hidden behind a ventilation panel in room 730 of the Hotel Sant Marc in Roses.

The lawyer is calling for compensation for moral damage of 20,000 € per person.

All three had used the shower before they discovered the camera, then after dining one of them saw some tape on the vent, and when he pulled it the camera was revealed.

Diari de Girona says the tourists quickly advised the hotel staff, and presented their complaint before the Mossos d’Esquadra regional police the next day. They also say that when the hotel sent two maintenance staff, the young one was clearly surprised by the find, but the older member of staff denied a camera had ever been there.

The police say the camera, equipped with a small antenna, was fed by a battery. They say it could have been placed there weeks before, and a cleaning lady said she had noticed the tape on the vent some two weeks before.
