The owner was extremely helpful in every way for our family Christmas holiday in Copenhagen. Right from arranging the keys to helping arranging our Christmas Day. The apartment was beautiful it felt we were right at home in a warm, cosy, clean and spacious home. Fantastic location by the lake and central to the city and all transport. I would definitely recommend and stay here again if I had the opportunity. Thank you to the owner it was like communicating with a friend.

Child Friendly apartment. Owner was great and tended to our every need and would answer any questions we had. The apartment was larger than I expected and our 2 year old loved the childrens room and space to play in. Metro was about a 5-10 min walk away, supermarket close by. Overall, this apartment is good for kids and close to transport links. The four floors to climb to get to it was the only real negative.

The hostess was really helpful and easy to talk to. The kitchen was well equipped and everything was clean. I would highly recommend staying here to anybody 🙂
