"The weird smell of the hospital"

About: Inpatient wards / Lotus assessment suite

(as the patient),

I was in the lotus assessment suite, the smell in the blankets and sheets was terrible, it literally smelled like vomit, pungent as ever! Even the water smelled weird and the cups and plates and all the cutlery, it was utterly disgusting how they’ve just left the hospital in terms of hygiene.
