Website, Emma, A guest asks for the door code on your website before arriving, while Rui is with other guests

Casa da Viela: I'm Casa da Viela's digital assistant. I use artificial intelligence. I can help with guest questions and arrival details; if you prefer, I'll hand the conversation to a person at any time.

Casa da Viela: Casa da Viela, good afternoon. Rui is welcoming other guests. Tell me about your arrival and I'll pass it on to him.

Emma: Hello, we have a booking at one of the apartments from Friday.

Casa da Viela: Noted. When do you expect to arrive, and might it be late?

Emma: We'll arrive late, around midnight.

Casa da Viela: Thank you. How many guests are you, including children?

Emma: Can you send me the door code now, so we can go straight in?

Casa da Viela: I can't send access details here: Rui sends them himself, once he has confirmed the booking name and the apartment. I'll pass your request on to him.

Emma: We are two adults.

Casa da Viela: Noted. Rui will confirm the booking and send you the arrival details. Are you coming by car? And how would you like his reply?

Emma: No car, we'll take a taxi. WhatsApp, please.

Casa da Viela: Noted. Your message is with Rui, who will confirm the booking and reply on WhatsApp.
