Mark Posted October 21, 2007 Share Posted October 21, 2007 Is it a GdeF necessity for the gite owner/caretaker to greet guests upon their arrival? Without wishing to sound callous(!), I could use my time more usefully than by hanging around on a Saturday afternoon simply in order to say hello and repeat any advice/instructions which would more than likely be in the literature GdeF have sent to the client already.Thanks [:)] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cooperlola Posted October 21, 2007 Share Posted October 21, 2007 The only time I've ever been greeted by the owner of a property I have rented (and it must be running at 50 or so by now) was on two occasions when the owners lived virtually on site. Never been a problem to me, and in about 50% of cases, I've seen nobody at all, all the time we've been there. Something to show they know you're coming is nice though - maybe a few fresh flowers or a bottle, but really, it's never put me off if they weren't there.

OK, will leave some flowers after cleaning it on Saturday mornings then, and leave it at that.Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
