Ugh! I hate to tell you this, but hot soap and water and normal household cleaners ususally don't help in this situation. Also, cat urine is ammonia based, so you don't want to clean with a household cleaner that has ammonia in it, because that might encourage the cat to use the area to pee on in the future.
My advice is to go to a pet store or the pet section of a Target or Wal-Mart and look for an enzyme product that helps with cat urine odors. Enzymes helps to break down the cat urine to actually erase the odor instead of just covering it up. You'll have to follow the directions precisely and have patience. When you first use these products, the smell can seem worse at first. However, as they dry, the odors usually fade away comletely. Best of luck to you.
Kind wishes,
