Question
He booked a Zimmer but eventually had to go to the hospital because his wife was in pain. Does he need to pay anything? The Zimmer owner claims he prepared the room, cleaned it, left the air conditioners on, and put on the sheets. There was a point when he thought it might happen but couldn't inform the Zimmer owner because it wasn't certain he would cancel, and later he informed him he couldn't come.
Answer
If at the time of booking he did not think such a thing would happen, he is completely exempt even from the expenses incurred by the Zimmer owner.
