How is this borderline? Central HVAC in homes is extremely uncommon in developing countries. Standalone AC units for rooms other than bedrooms are also quite uncommon (depends on the economic class of the householder). To say that there is no air conditioning because there is no air conditioning in the bathroom (and this is one of the specific complaints from the OP's reddit thread) is extremely entitled. Not everywhere is the richest country on earth.

In Europe too.

Nobody complained of no A/C in the bathrooms. You've misread Airbnb's social media agent's misguided reply. I'm the OP's roommate and I've clarified things at https://www.reddit.com/r/digitalnomad/comments/d1i53n/its_10...
