You're probably traveling on a budget and this place caught your eye. The same was true for me. Lesson learned, just spend a little bit extra and enjoy your trip. The host is rigid, and communication can be spotty. I'm also not sure about regulations of rooms for rent in the building, so you have to do a little run around to get the keys and not talk about it being an Airbnb around the building. Call me naive, it seemed weird.
