What do you with the sacred vesel if the church does not have a sacrarium sink?
the wine (precious blood) in the sacred vessel should be consumed. If not possible for some raeson and no sacrarium, it needs to be buried by pouring into the earth after digging a small hole, and way from traffic.

What are the sacrarium's of the roman Catholic church?
A sacrarium is a special sink found in the sacristy (robing, storage and preparation room) of a church. It drains to bare earth, rather than to a sewer, and it is almost always fitted with a cover, and most of the time the cover can be fastened or perhaps locked to keep extraneous things from falling into the sink. The purpose of the sacrarium is to drain away the water used to wash the sacred vessels used in the Mass for Holy Communion. These include the Chalice (a goblet), the Paten (a small plate) and the Ciborium ( a covered bowl or covered goblet). All of them are used to contain or store the Consecrated Bread and Consecrated Wine that are used in the Mass. The purpose of draining the wash water to bare earth is to prevent desecration of whatever small particles of bread or minuscule amounts of wine that might remain in the vessels after Holy Communion. Draining the wash water into a common sewer would not show proper respect. In addition, the first rinse water from the napkins used to blot the lips and wipe the inside of the Sacred Vessels is usually poured down the sacrarium, rather than simply dumping the rinse water into a sewer. And infrequently, the Consecrated Bread or Consecrated Wine has to be reverently disposed of, usually for reasons of sanitation. (Possible reasons might include: Someone sneezed while drinking from the Chalice, perhaps flies got into the Wine, or somehow the Bread molded.) If something like this happens, the Wine is diluted with water and poured down the sacrarium onto bare earth. The Bread is dissolved in water and poured down the sacrarium onto bare earth. These things don't happen very often, but the altar vessels and linens pretty much have to be washed after every Mass.
Where is holy water kept in churches when it is not being used?
Depends; if we're talking about the Holy Water in the fonts (the ones you use to bless yourself when entering/exiting the Nave) and Baptismal Font then it is left their. Holy Water that is in the aspergillium (Holy Water sprinkler), aspersorium (Bucket for the aspergillium), and the water used for ablutions (Priest's washing of hands) is probably poured into the Baptismal Font or down the Sacrarium (special sink that leads directly to the ground that is used for cleaning anything that came into contact with the Eucharist). A lot of parishes also have tin spigot-like containers with Holy Water in it for parishioners to take home for personal use; The Holy Water is also left in these containers. Now, if the Holy Water becomes gunky or suffers stagnation, it is poured down the Sacrarium and new water is blessed by the parish Priest.
What is the room where priests vest before mass?
The sacristy is where most of the stuff is kept for Mass: the chalice, vestments, altar cloths, etc. Most priest vest in the sacristy as the vestments are stored there. There are prayers assigned to be said with each vestment. In some monasteries there is a separate vesting room, where they vestments are laid out in a particular pattern, which their chalice on a shelve above it. Anglican priests, and protestant ministers robe in the vestry (so called because it houses the vestments).
