A/C not working, host can’t fix it [guest] [Georgia]

When we arrived at our AirBnB yesterday, the home was set on 75°. It was extremely hot and muggy, so we checked the thermostat to turn on the air. We were having trouble lowering the temp past 72°/73° as it just wouldn’t go lower than that. I finally got it to go down to 70° but it seemed like a temporary setting. I reviewed the home instructions and they ask that the temp stays between 68°-76°, no problem, I was aiming for 68° since that’s what we set our house on.

We left and went to dinner, came back and it’s at 72°, so I message the host and let her know something isn’t right. She agreed it should and could go down to 68°, asked for a pic, and said she’d send someone out in the morning.

This afternoon she sends a message saying the handyman checked it out and concluded the owners have it locked, she’s contacted the owners to find out the code to unlock it, so the temp can be turned down.

It’s now past 8pm, we’ve not heard anything else. Two out of the 3 bedrooms are so warm and the fans are mediocre. I have my daughter in the coolest room of course.

I’ve never had this situation and not sure what to do. We check out Sunday and like a lot of places, it’s so hot right now.
