People don't read; They skim.
-Simplify: you've got a beautiful description, but it loses people before they get through.
Bullet sections they can look at or ignore based on what is important to them.
-Consider swapping for a sleeper sofa: Increases your pool to groups of 4 or less: 2 couples, a small family with a kid or 2 to also use your space.
-Tell more with the Title: Take the name out of the listing title. Nobody is clicking because of the title- they're clicking on images that speak to them. Use your title to tell them why they are picking your place. Ex: Private 1BR by Cluj Center, Free Parking, Transit

The space (Can even reduce this more)
Retro Retreat gives you something a standard hotel room can't: separate spaces to sleep, relax, eat, and work.
The apartment has a private entrance from the courtyard and includes a separate bedroom, living room with dining area, kitchenette, and private bathroom. It's compact and practical, with everything you need for an easy stay in Cluj.
Sleeping Arrangements
• Bedroom: 1 bed
• Maximum occupancy: 2 guests
Living Area
The separate living room gives you somewhere to relax outside the bedroom, whether you're catching up on work, having a meal, or simply unwinding after a day in the city.
Kitchenette
The kitchenette is equipped for simple meals and everyday use.
Please note: there is no oven.
Private Patio
Step outside to your own private patio—a convenient spot for morning coffee, some fresh air, or an evening break.
The patio is also the designated smoking area for guests who smoke.
Getting Around
Retro Retreat is in a quiet residential setting while still being conveniently connected to the rest of Cluj.
Train Station: Within walking distance
Bus Stop: About a 2-minute walk
City Centre: Easy to reach by public transportation or on foot
Parking: Free street parking is available nearby and is often available directly in front of the property.
Guest Access
You'll have a private entrance from the courtyard and can use self check-in via keybox.
No need to coordinate your arrival time with the host—once the standard check-in time begins, you can arrive when it works for you.
Clear access instructions will be provided before arrival.
Good to Know
The apartment is located on the lower-ground level of a residential property. Because of its position, it has less natural light than an upper-floor apartment.
A dehumidifier is provided to help maintain a comfortable level of humidity. Please leave it plugged in whenever possible, and after showering, leave the bathroom window slightly open for a while to allow moisture to escape.
