This is normal for cloud images. You need to setup a configuration iso
using cloud-init tool which injects your  user with admin priv and ssh key

Cloud images autogenerate a hashed root password on first boot.

If you read the manual/info page about them it is quite clear that they are
unusable without user/key injection.
