When I booked with Benny I didn’t give much thought to it. It was a good value and well located.
What I didn’t expect was for Benny to be such a wonderful, hospitable host. I was finishing up a bike tour in Copenhagen and had a number of tasks to take care of before leaving. He helped me out with recommendations, tools, food, and truly just went above and beyond in providing a great experience. Benny reminded me of the experiences I’d had with Airbnb a decade ago.
The room and bed were comfortable. I got my best sleep in a month of continuous travel in that room. The wifi was very good.
I will note in some of the reviews there is a bit of a negative stance towards the quietness. First, I really enjoyed how quiet it was and it’s something Benny tries to have everyone maintain. He does have some specific requests (like drying the shower when done) that we’re all incredibly reasonable and he tells you the expectations.
It’s not a place to loudly take calls in the late evening while slamming doors, but that would be a weird expectation.
