Hot water, even in a commercial establishment, had to run out eventually. She knew that she was pressing her luck by remaining in there any longer. Reluctantly turning the taps off, Hermione stepped out of the hotel shower. The towels offered were never enough to complete a satisfactory job, but she really had no other option. Hotels where the staff accepted cash and required no credit card for a reservation weren't exactly known for being terribly opulent. She had to make do with what was offered in exchange for Muggles who kept their mouths shut and their curiosities to themselves. When she was satisfied that at least she was no longer dripping with water, she wrapped the inadequate towel around her torso and stepped outside.
