Everything was more than fine. The only "limit" was that in the confirmation they should have been adding the indications they sent me on Whatsapp when I arrived and tried to call them: I would have known where to look at without feeling lost. Apart from that, everything was perfect and value for money is great. I definitely recommend this service.
