The House of the Hungry Merchant
The following info is from Volo's Guide to the Sword Coast, set in 1367DR. Waukeen has since been found after being missing, so we can assume that this temple has been revitalised as a temple of Waukeen.
This former shrine to Waukeen offers poor visitors and beggars of the city a warm bed and a meal. The meal is usually thick beef-and-carrot stew, enlivened by anonymous lumps of chopped meat and vegetables.
The House is a big, drafty barn of a place run by merchant donations. Traders of either sex and most races are allowed to stay here. The House is staffed by the city guard, who keep a close and constant watch on guests to prevent brawls, thefts, muggings, and the like. All weapons must be surrendered to the staff during a visitor's stay.
By city law, six nights at a stretch is the longest a person can stay in the House. Guests who are found to have more than 4 gold pieces' worth of coins on their persons are ejected from the House because it is considered that they can afford their own meals and accommodations.
