Both Tine and her husband Niels were there to meet me on arrival since Tine had to leave shortly afterwards due to a work commitment. They introduced me to the apartment - equipment etc - and, after Tine left, Niels talked to me more generally (and interestingly!) about Copenhagen, music and languages. They made sure I had their contact details should I have any questions or problems with the apartment during my stay.

The apartment was exactly as presented on the site except that words and pictures don't really do it sufficient justice. It is indeed charming, full of books, music, pictures and character, and with a delightful view over shared gardens from the kitchen window.

The location could hardly be better. The neighbourhood is lively and interesting, and practically everything you would want to see in central Copenhagen is in easy walking distance. In some cases, it's just around the corner, along with cafes, restaurants, shops, supermarkets and markets. If you want to go further afield, say to Louisiana or Malmo in Sweden, then Norreport Station with metro, S trains and buses is similarly just around the corner.

The apartment is comfortable, convenient and, like its host, very welcoming. All in all, it's a fine place to stay, and the care and attention afforded by its host, Tine, exceptional.
