How to Unlock the Smart Lock

Your room door uses a smart lock. Enter your unlock code on the keypad to open it. Please follow the steps below.

① Normal Use

To Unlock

1. Tap your unlock code on the keypad
2. The door unlocks automatically (you'll hear a “whirring” motor sound)
3. Turn the doorknob and open the door

To Lock (when going out / checking out)

1. Close the door
2. Just tap the Lock / Unlock button on the top of the keypad to lock it (no code needed)

② What Not to Do

Do not enter the unlock code while pulling the door. If you enter the unlock code while pulling the door, the internal motor cannot rotate properly and the door will not unlock. At this point, the system recognizes the lock as “unlocked,” so the system status no longer matches the actual locked state, and the door will not open.

③ What to Do If the Door Won't Open

Follow the steps below to sync the system status with the actual locked state.

1. Release your hand from the doorknob
2. Gently push the door inward
3. Tap the Lock / Unlock button on the top of the keypad
4. Check whether you hear a “whirring” motor sound
5. If no sound: tap the unlock code, then tap the Lock / Unlock button. Repeat until you hear the motor sound.
6. Tap the unlock code again, then turn the doorknob to open the door

It may not work on the first try. Repeating the steps 2-3 times usually resolves it.

④ If the Door Still Won't Open

Please contact us via your booking platform's message feature (Airbnb / Booking.com etc). We will help right away.
