This was the 1st time we've rented a room from Airbnb and we were initially a little apprehensive. Janet & Anders quickly put us at ease, graciously offering us use of umbrellas, hair dryers, phone charging plugs, etc. They were also kind enough to share the special bread that is only made once a year on their General Prayer Day holiday. Janet & Anders ended up talking with us for almost 2 hrs that morning, which was greatly appreciated. They also provided useful suggestions regarding day trips we were considering. We eventually rented a car and drove to Mons Klint which was well worth the journey.
The apartment itself is very nice and located in Nordhavn, 4 train stops north of the main Copenhagen train station and 2 stops north of the Norreport station that we used to go to and from the airport on the metro. Trains run at regular intervals so it's easy to travel into and out of the city center. It is recommended to purchase a transit card which can be used on trains/buses/metros/etc. Note that one initially needs to walk south out of the Nordhavn train station to cross under the tracks before heading back north towards the apartment. It is a leisurely 10 minute walk, partially along the harbor. There are also numerous cafe, bakeries, restaurants within easy walking distance. The neighbourhood itself is quiet and safe. We typically walked 8-10 miles a day in Copenhagen and this was a great place to return to each night to rejuvenate.
One thing to be aware of. Anders & Janet have listed the correct address on their Airbnb page, but if you click on the direction arrow, Google Maps will direct you down a side alley and not to the entrance to their apartment. If Google Maps directs you down Travemündegade 1 as its final turn, ignore this and continue straight down Antwerpengade for another 50 ft or so. The entrance to their apartment building will be on the left. Door 15 I believe. Google Maps provides the correct directions if you enter the correct address: Antwerpengade 15, 2150 København, Denmark
This is a great place for those who want to get away from the hustle and bustle of the city center while still having easy access to downtown activities. We cannot thank Janet and Anders enough for making us feel welcome in their home.
