It basically explains how almost every department in Mexico City working with AirBnb belongs to one person, creating a hellscape for any person trying to really live in there (if u want to become even more depressed; https://politica.expansion.mx/cdmx/2022/11/04/mr-w-airbnb-cdmx-incrementa-1600-renta-departamento-condesa).

We need to try staying at local guest houses/hostals maybe even hotel's, to not make things worse.

And I really love the concept of Gasthaus, I envy u Germans !

As a German this confuses me.

A Gasthaus is there to sit and eat/drink, you can't sleep there.

Gasthof is what OP is looking for.

Shoutout to Landhaus Herrnmülle in Alzenau, Germany!

That was my first and I’ll always remember it.

And you have to be OK with the AirBNB owner staying with you!
