No hot water available in our room. Only option we were given was to switch rooms to a queen room. Due to the fact that we are staying here for a follow up to my brain surgery 10 days ago, my husband and I cannot share a queen sized bed for fear of my head getting whacked. Now we are not even able to take showers in our room and were just told “sorry.”
