Everybody including adults must put a towel on their chair while eating at the kitchen table. A little weird, but not problematic.
There is only bar soap in the entire house. Dishes are hand washed with a bar of Ivory soap. Again a little weird, but it is soap.
There are decorative liquid soap dispensers in the bathroom but they are only for show. Decorative tissue box covers are also empty. She doesn't like for people to use the decorative hand towels but there aren't other towels to use. Use the hand towels anyway or bring a roll of paper towels with yuo when you visit.
The upstairs shower drain is clogged so you're basically standing in a bath by the time your shower is done. It's been this way for over 2 years. She doesn't think it's an issue. Next time bring a declogger and do it yourself.
Everyone is freezing but MIL won't turn the heat up. Put on a fleece.
Do you always try to fix everyone?

MIL's house sounds gross. I'd get folks to chip in for an emergency plumber and at least solve the drain issue. Is she on a limited income?
