by private do they mean en suite? I find it hard to believe they didn't have kitchens

Old pre-war buildings usually had communal kitchens.

I don't think I could hack it not just leaving dirty dishes after I cook something until that evening/next morning. They need to soak!

But consider: if you volunteer to do the cooking someone else will have to do the washing up

Yes, I mean en suite. The bathrooms and kitchens were communal. According to him if you weren't there at meal time you didn't eat.

I lived in places like that here in Argentina built in the same time period, (some way earlier, some waay later), "conventillos" they are called here but work exactly the same as hostels. They are built for landlords to rent, instead of subdivided apartments.
