Reserved a private room with A/C several months prior for around $50 a night, was given a room facing the street with just a dated oscillating fan despite being aware of A/C rooms being available. Looking at the site the rate was around $95 for A/C rooms and $85 for rooms without. From what I deduced, because I had booked a cheaper rate the owner forced me into the room that I did not book, breaching trust in bookings at this location. Store on street blares music and blasts lights until 2am.

Simple, pleasant property with excellent location. Rooms are small and spare but very clean. Kitchen is simple with a few cooking implements sufficient for making a basic meal if no one else needs the kitchen at the same time. Only two showers, but this was fine with low occupancy; I could always access a shower if I wanted it. The proprietor is kind and gentle, and the historic feel of the place is warm.
