Landlord reserves the right to hire a recurring Professional Cleaning/Maid Service if Tenant(s) are not keeping the premises in clean/sanitary order at Landlord’s own judgment. This expense will be the responsibility of the Tenant(s)

Good to know

• Water. Denmark has some of the cleanest water in the world, so it is safe to drink it straight from the cold-water tap.
• Radiators. Radiators in Denmark have a thermostat. This means that you can control the temperature in your room yourself. However, you should turn off the heat when you air out your room, as the radiator will heat more trying to keep the same temperature in the room and thus waste energy and money. Switch it on again when you close the windows.

Lock your doors and windows

• Denmark are generally nice and safe places to live. However, it is important that you remember to lock the doors and windows when you are not home as well as when for instance you prepare food and socialise in the common kitchen.

Insurance

Remember that it is your responsibility to insure yourself and your belongings while you stay in Denmark. 

• A Travel insurance making sure that you will be able to return to your home country or that your family can travel to Denmark, if needed, in case of severe illness or accident
• A Home and Liability insurance to cover your belongings in case of theft, water damage, fire, etc. This insurance should also cover you if you by accident damage other people or property, including the furnishings of your room, for which you are responsible during your stay.
• An Accident insurance in case of severe consequences to you in connection with an accident, not covered by the travel insurance
• We do not recommend any particular company, but you can use Forsikringsportalen to find affordable insurance company offers, or you can ask your Danish employer or fellow international students, if they know of any insurance companies to recommend.
