Customer Stories

"Our local cafe Nolita Mart is owned by a great family team. When I saw Keycafe I knew it was perfect for our needs in New York letting in friends and Airbnb guests. The service worked flawlessly the first time and makes our property look more professional for our Airbnb guests."

"I had a realtor let me know about Keycafe. I researched the service and found that it really works well for showings in condo buildings where lockboxes are not allowed. It's a great service - easy to use and technology friendly."

- Rick, Vancouver

"We heard about Keycafe through a friend who had used the service. It was fantastic!"

"I was at Culprit Coffee and when I saw the Keycafe console. Dropping off my keys was easy, and my first guest picked them up with no problem. I really like that people go to Culprit to get their keys, it's a great locally-owned place that has the best coffee in my area. Thanks!"

"I''m an engineer and work on out of town projects quite often. Keycafe is an excellent service and has been extremely convenient to use and has eliminated my need for a property manager. It’s really easy to rent out my 1 bedroom loft on Main when I'm away for work, especially now that Keycafe exists!"

"I found out about Keycafe by visiting Waves Coffeehouse and asking about the console. I use Airbnb quite a bit to travel and host my apartment. The service has been great so far, and my clients have loved it."

"I was going away overseas and arranged a cat sitter to take care of my kittens. The last time I tried to exchange my house with the cat nanny it was a nightmare and I missed a ferry ride :(. When I saw Keycafe I knew I had to try it. The process was quick and easy and the staff at Waves were really helpful. When it came time for the key exchange, it was seamless! I would definitely recommend the service to others."

"I had an Airbnb guest unexpectedly book while I was headed out of town. Keycafe saved me from driving 2 hours back into the city just to let the guest in."

- Kathryn, Vancouver

"I couldn't be happier with Keycafe. I even locked myself out once but luckily Keycafe was there to save me. Keycafe is absolutely incredible."

- Stephen, Vancouver

"I recently learned about Airbnb and wanted to rent while I was on a trip to Spain, but decided not to due to guest access issues to my apartment. Then I saw the brochure for Keycafe at my local cafe, and it was just what I needed. I received email updates that gave me peace of mind that my guests were checked in."

- Peter, Vancouver
Busy Homeowner

"This year, I was away in Toronto and again needed to let somebody into my apartment to get a file. Using Keycafe I authorized them to pick up my keys from the cafe next door and my problem was solved."

- Philip, Vancouver

"We absolutely love Keycafe. It's allowed us to quickly and easily get Airbnb guests into our home. It's been nothing but great to use."

- Gaelle, Vancouver
