Smart lock for self check-in

[Shachar5]

Hey Everyone!

I'm in the process of preparing my apartment in Budapest for Airbnb rentals and I'm looking into smart lock options compatible with the Airbnb app. From what I've gathered, it seems like the following "Schlage" smart lock models are a popular choice since they are compatible with the Airbnb App.

However, there's a bit of a snag for me since Schlage doesn't have a European branch. I'll have to order the lock from Amazon, and I want to ensure I'm making the right choice without any surprises down the line.

If anyone in Europe is currently using this lock, could you please confirm a few things for me?

1. Can the installation, activation, and operation be easily done without the support of Schlage, considering they don't operate in Hungary?
2. Have you encountered any technical issues with the lock that required support?

Beyond these technical aspects, I'd love to hear about your overall experience with the lock. Is it worth the investment, especially considering its higher price compared to other smart locks? And importantly, have your guests found it easy to use during their stays?

Thanks a ton for your insights and help!
