How to connect by ssh to the cloud instance public IP address?

Hi,
I just created an instance. I downloaded the Private key & confirmed that the instance running. I also see that port 22 is open from web console.
However when i tried to access using the key, it somehow cannot reach the IP. I tried to upload the private key to cloud shell & ssh from there. Still failed & ended with timeout. I tried to telnet to port 22 also timed out.
What can I do to connect to the VM? The documentation said SSH daemon shld be running by default & once instance created shld be able to connect by ssh thru port 22 on its public IP addr. But apparently it did not happen that way.
What can I do to ssh to my instance?
