Very disappointing stay!

My husband had a lobectomy and i spent the night at the hospital. I was exhaustedly and needed a hot shower, good meal and sleep. I was so looking forward to my stay. The clerk at the desk was noce enough. He handed me a paper and sais this is about the hotel. I got to my room, dropped my bags and read the paper where i found the lovely hotel lounge was not serving food or beverages. There was another option that was very nice but not quiet! I ate, had a cocktail and walked back to my room which was literally on the other side of the hotel. I immediately prepared for my shower. There was no hot water. I let it run for 15 minutes. Still cold. I decided to get in anyway and body wash and slid nearly through the glass doors. The shower was like a sheer of glass. So no shower for me. I washed in the sink and went to bed. Thankfully that was comfortable in my viewless room. The television blocked the window
