Lack of help at the property

The apartment is convenient and nice, so is the parking. The only real problem is that everything has to be managed by phone with We Host at the time you arrive. There is nobody at the property to explain to you how to use the keys and to find the parking lot. I have to say that there is a secondary line that calls you to give information before you arrive and the lady who talked to me wrongly told me that there was no parking on the property. After you find out how to use the keys and locate the parking, everything is OK.
