Why Check-In Matters
Studies show that check-in experience is the #1 factor guests mention in reviews. A smooth arrival creates goodwill that lasts the entire stay, while a frustrating check-in puts guests in a negative mindset before they even see your property.
Pro Tip: Redundancy is Key
Always have a backup access method. Smart lock batteries die, lockbox combinations get forgotten, and flights get delayed. We set up multiple access layers so guests never get stranded.

Tips for Smooth Check-Ins
Maximize guest satisfaction from the first moment
Send Instructions Early
Send check-in instructions 24 hours before AND 2 hours before arrival. Include photos of the entry process for a stress-free arrival.
Always Have a Backup
Smart locks can fail. Always have a lockbox with a physical key as backup. We check batteries during every turnover cleaning.

Key Exchange FAQs
Common questions about Airbnb check-in
What's the best key exchange method for Airbnb?
Smart locks are our top recommendation for most hosts. They allow unique codes per guest, remote management, and eliminate lost key issues. We recommend August, Schlage, or Yale smart locks for reliability.
Do I need to be present for every guest check-in?
No. With smart locks or lockboxes, guests can self-check-in at any time. We handle code generation and guest communication, so you never need to meet guests unless you want to.
What happens if a guest gets locked out?
Our emergency support team responds in under 9 minutes on average. We can remotely generate new codes, dispatch a team member with backup keys, or coordinate with your building's concierge.
Will my condo building allow smart locks?
Not all condo buildings allow smart locks, so you'll need to check with your condo board first. If smart locks aren't permitted, we recommend the lockbox method or arranging key handover through your building's concierge if allowed.
How do you handle key fobs for condo buildings?
We coordinate with your building's concierge or management to arrange fob access for guests. This can include concierge handoff or lockbox storage.
What if my door isn't compatible with smart locks?
We assess your door type during our free consultation. Most standard doors work with smart locks. For incompatible doors, we recommend lockboxes as a reliable alternative.
