Pretty Good House- Bad Management I would not recommend any rental from this property management outfit. The house was pretty well suited to our needs, but our stay would have been much better if there had been a LOCAL manager there to help with some problems. We had plenty of emails, phone calls, and texts exchanges with the “Host Team” members, but could not get help with even simple things, like telling us where the extra towels were. We feel that we left the property looking better than when we arrived, although we had to do some things that I don't believe should normally be expected of rental guests. As we approached our rental home on July 4 in our rental car, the first thing I saw was the trash in the street. There were three trash bins at the curb – a blue recycle bin, a green yard waste bin, and a black garbage bin. It turned out that the blue bin was empty, but the other two had overflowed and trash was on the street (no yard waste). I wondered what kind of neighborhood my rental was in, but it turned out that the neighborhood was OK. The trash was all from my rental home. Right after arrival we picked up the trash from the street in front of the house, put it in the garbage bin, and wheeled both that one and the garbage-filled yard waste bin to the garage. As we picked up the trash from the street we noticed that the yard waste bin had been tagged with a violation notice (dated June 26!). The garbage bin was so full that we could not fit all of ours in. Discussing the trash problem in a phone conversation with one member of the Co-Host team, I was advised to contact the city about it. (Is this MY job?) In the outdated information in the loose leaf notebook in the house, the former local host had asked prospective guests if they would like her to meet them on arrival. This would seem reasonable, but on our arrival we found that there did NOT SEEM TO BE A LOCAL HOST. (By the way, the former local host’s phone number is still on the rental sign in the front yard.)  We inquired about extra towels, since we found only 8 bath towels set out. We were informed by phone/text that more towels were not available. A fairly thorough search of the house resulted in the discovery of more towels within 24 hours, and even more towels(!) were discovered a day later in a place we had not thought to look. (Couldn't someone just tell us where the towels were?) Same story with chairs. We started with 6-8 chairs for 16 people, and were told that no more were available. A day later someone discovered 8 metal folding chairs, just what we needed (although they were pretty dirty and required cleaning). (Shouldn't management know how many chairs there are?) Approximately...
