Not having the ability to specify 'Partial A/C' is exactly my suggestion to Airbnb.

The "reasonable solution" didn't work - we waited longer than what the host claimed it would take to make the place "cool as a fridge".

Why would we not be supposed to work in the apartment?

Right, it wasn't anyone's hard fault, so if I were the host, I'd charge 3 nights' worth and leave the situation with a clean conscience and quite a bit of cash for spending 30 minutes.
