This is a beautiful house in a beautiful neighborhood a short distance from the heart of Copenhagen. The neighborhood, known as the "potato rows," is a cluster of semi-pedestrian streets lined with historic, small rowhouses poised between downtown and the tony Østerbro neighborhood. A few steps from Copenhagen's lakes at one end of the street and a cozy, organic bakery/deli (Emmery's) at the other, the house is charming, beautifully decorated and comfortable. Good restaurants are within easy walking distance (although a quality supermarket is a bit of a trek), and Kari is a warm and responsive host.

The only downside is that it is a bit of a trek to the S-train and metro, so you have to learn how to use the bus system to get where you're going. Otherwise, this is a fabulous place to stay and gives guests a nice taste of the "real" Copenhagen.
