There were many things to like about Claus’ Copenhagen apartment:
-- The location was fantastic. There were stores, pubs, cafes, pastry shops and more within a short walk. We could walk to the city center or take the metro (stop was just three minutes away).
-- Claus welcomed us, showed us his place and recommended local places to eat. He communicated well before we arrived and was very friendly.
-- The apartment had nice technology touches: a smart TV, washer/dyer, strong WIFI and multiple USB charging ports.
-- Affordability was reasonable for our party of seven (five adults and two children).
At least on our visit, there were several areas to improve:
-- The apartment wasn’t particularly clean. Tables and furniture were dusty, dishes were in the sink, shoes on the floor, the shower was moldy and clothes in the dryer.
-- Being in a neighborhood is wonderful, but be prepared for lots of late-night parties, noise and (on one night) fireworks.
-- The beds were below par, and the couch did not have a bed; there were thin mattresses you could lay atop the sections to help.
-- The apartment was on the fourth floor; if your group has anyone with mobility issues (or you have lots of bags) it can be challenging to get up and down.
Overall, despite the location and friendliness of the host, I don’t think we would come back to this apartment.
