I immediately realized my mistake and asked to change it (since it was a non-changeable reservation), but they wouldn't allow it.

Google, May 2026, rated 2/5 by this guest

I booked the hotel indicating an incorrect month and immediately tried to request a change in the date (it was a non-modifiable reservation) and I hoped since it had only been a few minutes that there was a certain elasticity and instead they refused the request.
