TL;DR

Report the problem to the reception desk or host right away; they may provide insect spray or treat the room. Keep food sealed and move electronics and belongings off the floor, as ants can get inside them.

What the community said

Ask the reception desk to treat the room or provide insect spray. One reported solution was a general insect aerosol that was also used for spiders.

Do not wait for the infestation to grow: ants may move in groups over electronics and gather in room corners. Keep devices, chargers and personal items away from their trails.

Seal food and clear away crumbs, since ants can get into food. Minor bites are also possible.

The same sweet bait does not work on every ant species: some swarm to it while others barely react. If bait fails, ask the accommodation management for pest treatment.

If using bait, expect a temporary increase in visible ants: sweet drops can attract many workers that carry the bait back to the nest, after which activity may stop.
