The appartment, in an older block of probably the early to mid-twentieth century, is exactly as described / pictured: It is clean, light and airy, spacious and nicely laid out in a 'modern' kind of way - the light, functional furniture complimenting the tall and voluminous rooms. It was comfortably heated with lots of hot water on tap and a well appointed kitchen with electric only appliances. It was a lovely experience to live in such a flat and feel, for a short period of time at least, 'part of the local community'. I'd say it was one of the highlights of our stay!

Norrebro struck us as being an unpretentious area of the city with good amenities nearby (lovely bread shop, bike hire places a plenty, a couple of restaurants which we didn't end up trying and a supermarket) and is about a fifteen minute walk to Copenhagen's 'throbbing' centre (town hall square - 'Radhuspladsen' or Norreport for the 'Stroget') - though much quicker by frequent and convenient bus or, even better, by bike. It didn't take long to get to from the airport either (unless you take the wrong train, as we did, and make an impromptu stop at Hellerup! No fault of the our host - just confusion on our part!) - we estimated that it would have been about forty minutes.

Rasmus was a delightful host - meeting us at the bus stop and ensuring that we knew our way around the area and the flat but also took care not to be intrusive. We were glad to make his acquaintance.

For any first time visitors to Copenhagen we would strongly recommend hiring a bike for the duration of your visit. We hired bikes for a couple of days and it was a real pleasure to get around Copenhagen - and environs - on the broad and segregated cycleways and you so much feel part of the community. There are several bike hire shops nearby (Rasmus can also direct you to these) and prices seem pretty reasonable - we got ours for £9 each.
