KeyCafe has garnered a generally positive reputation, particularly for its responsive and helpful customer service team. Customers frequently commend the support staff for their professionalism, patience, and efficiency in resolving issues, contributing to a high level of satisfaction. However, some concerns arise regarding service fees, such as key pick-up charges, which have deterred potential users. Additionally, there are suggestions for improvements in the user interface and setup process, particularly for less tech-savvy individuals. Overall, while customer service is a notable strength, addressing pricing and usability could enhance the overall customer experience.

The concept of Keycafe is wonderful, but the execution is... truly, truly awful... I went to one of their locations to drop off my keys, then a bin opened up and there was someone else's key in it! I called customer service and they blamed it on user errors, saying that Keycafe did nothing wrong and this 'rarely happens'. Then a week later, they lost my keys. And I've only been using the service for two months! Again, they shamelessly blamed it on 'user errors' and the fact that my guest didn't call them for help and dropped off the keys twice. What kind of guest would want to wait 10 minutes on the phone just to drop off a key? Besides, the system does not even have the capacity to detect if a key has been dropped off or picked up, it simply tells you that your drop-off or pickup is successful even when it's not. I had to waste hours of my time speaking to their customer service, then even more time and hundreds of dollars replacing my key fob and lock. They assume no responsibility in case it affects your next guest's check-in, and will only reimburse you up to $100 ONLY IF they THEMSELVES determine that they were at fault for losing your keys. A simple google search will show you how many other Keycafe users have had similar problems with the service. They recently jacked up the price as well and I absolutely would NOT recommend Keycafe to anyone who cares about security and user experience.
Update: They offered to reimburse up to $100 'purely out of good customer service' as they determined that they were not at fault for the loss of my key. I emailed them the receipts and here is their response. Pure professionalism.
Natoya was incredibly patient and helpful in helping me troubleshoot the Keycafe that was unresponsive. We got the issue handled quickly and we are back in business.
We had multipule key drop offs and we inadvertantily cancelled one of the bookings. With assistance we were able to reset the reservation and access the key that was inside the key cafe
The live chat assistant was excellent. She helped with all my questions and sent me follow up emails to ensure I am provided with additional details.
Thanks a lot for this solution easy to use and user friendly!
