We call this apartment "Svend" named after one of the three kings who fought for power as king of Denmark. "Svend's" apartment is the largest of our apartments and is named after Svend Grathe. The apartment has a large double bed ideal for couples. The double bed consists of two single beds of 90 x 200 cm, which are put together to form a double bed. The beds in the bedroom can be separated (please ask for seperate bed linens). In the living room there is a sofa bed for 2 people. Duvets, bed linen and towels are provided.
