1. The English word is condescendent or condescending

1707, prp. adj. from condescend. Originally in a positive sense (of God, the Savior, etc.) until late 18c. Related: Condescendingly (1650s).

2. In other languages (French, Italian, etc.) it retains the "good sense".
3. I would translate it as "affable".
