Originally booked a house in Nørrebro slightly closer to the centre with the same amenities at half the price, however this was cancelled at very short notice due to a burst pipe. We are very grateful for Ole's late availability and quick response - having cancelled accommodation at short notice when travelling with small children is a worry! Ole's is a beautiful bright and clean penthouse apartment in a very secure building and safe neighbourhood. On booking asked for late check in and out. Late check in was fine as you do this yourself via a key box, check out wasn't addressed and when it came to check out was told this wasn't possible as they now had another booking - partly my fault should have arranged time sooner. However, very helpful storing luggage and even noted that if we had told him at the start of the trip that we decided not to bring our pram he could possibly have arranged use of one. All other communication was quick, thorough and precise - all door codes given, key and garbage locations and easy to understand.
Quite expensive for the length of time and although it's a beautiful apartment there are several minor issues that could do with addressing (down stairs bed not sturdy, stairs banister not stable, upstairs bed on books, kitchen tap not fixed and a light out of order). On the plus side Ole was very helpful, it was clean, there were toys to play with which my 21 month old was very happy with!, use of 2 cots, a washing machine/dryer, iron, lots of maps and guide books provided and a warm welcome gift of wine, coffee and a balloon for my daughter.
It was very easy to get into town centre via bus 1A (single bus tickets can be used for up to 1 hour after purchase, 24 do per adult in zone 1) the local area had a park, resturants and shops, a supermarket within the same building and another just down the road. A bakery across the road and an excellent cafe in walking distance called pixie that Ole had suggested for us. We walked around the local area but a bit far to walk into town centre. We were unable to rent bikes due to not being compatable with a 3 month old and 21 month old but this would have been a great way to get around! Especially the christiania bikes with older children. Lots to do even in the rain! Taxi from airport to apartment was about 340 dkk and we caught the 1A and then 5C (route shown as 5A on map, change at carlsberg/Tivoli) for 36 dkk per adult, you can also catch this bus to the aquarium although we didn't go. Self walking tour highly recommended as is the food market.
