The key here is the bikes: they could be in better shape, but for those on a budget, it makes sense to stay at Ruben's place (a bit sparsely furnished and undersupplied in linens) cook or at least make coffee in his outfitted kitchen and then hop on one of his ramshackle two-wheel beauties to tool around town. There's not much to do in the immediate neighborhood, but you can bike anywhere in Copenhagen. We had no complaints staying there for 5 nights, although if you're not going to the nearby beach, it might be less convenient for some who plan on spending all of their time right in the city center or in Vesterbro or Norrebro.
