Anders’ place is a really stylish little snug in a quiet are of Copenhagen. If you’re there for a short weekend trip and arrive early on Fri then go for it. It’s a great little bolthole.
The decor throughout is tasteful and smacks of Anders’ warm personality. The space is not only well decorated but is also perfectly laid out to make the optimal use of the design - a testament I suspect to awesome danish design and Anders’ own good taste.
As a host, Anders was timely and highly informative in his responses. The place is a little tricky to find but has a lovely little courtyard where it can be found, at the back. The route into town is a busy one but that means an abundance of buses, train and cycling options too are available. Given the pleasant weather we opted to walk most days and just came off the main road to avoid too many traffic fumes.
The area itself is both convenient and inconvenient. It is the former because it sits nestled in between several neighbours that are nice to visit and is on a main artery route to town. It is the latter because there is very little in the way of local amenities so nipping out for food or half a beer isn’t easy given it’s a brisk 20-30 mins walk in any direction to find a selection of shops, bars and restaurants. There is one local bodega which, whilst welcoming, is completely full of smokers. (In Denmark, one can still smoke in bars with an area smaller than 40m squared.) Whilst my partner was overjoyed at this discovery, as a non smoker it wasn’t my optimum choice!
Definitely a good option to stay here if your looking for a little quiet apartment to relax in for a day of exploring but for us - whilst the apartment was great - the area was a little too quiet an area and we would probably choose somewhere closer to Nørrebro or one of the other neighbourhoods next time.
