Jakob is a good host with a great property in an excellent neighborhood in Copenhagen with easy, convenient access to mass transit to pretty much anything you want to see in Copenhagen and Denmark (and it's an easy trip to Malmo, Sweden, as well).

We have stayed in the same neighborhood twice before, and Jakob's apartment offers a lot of advantages (including the view, which Jakob rightly highlights in his description). One of the things we most appreciated about Jakob, and something that not all hosts think to do, was the fact that, without our asking for it, he set aside some closet space for us so we did not have to live out of suitcases our entire stay (as I have had to do previously).

The living space itself provides a lot of flexibility for different mixes of guests (e.g., single family v. multi-family groups v. groups of friends). Perhaps just as importantly, there are lots of ways to share the space that allow individuals to unwind privately while sub-groups socialize. This makes Jakob's place feel more like a home away from home than other properties might.

The only potential disadvantage for some guests may be the five flights of stairs you need to ascend to get up to the apartment, but this should not deter anyone who does not have serious health issues. As a guy who is pretty out of shape these days, the exercise was welcome and helped prepare me for two weeks of walking several kilometers a day every day for two weeks in Copenhagen and Paris.

Highly recommended.
