Review of Southwark Apartments

I booked the Compact Studio the rooms are very nice and stylish though it might be a little squeezy with two people, but it was just myself so plenty of room to stretch out. The room had everything I needed to reheat my dinners I cooked in the common kitchens which were very well equipped for a hotel.
I didn't drive but I understand that parking is very limited so that might be a factor if you do drive.
It's in a nice and very convenient part of town, most things are within walking distance. The gym down the street must have some agreement with the owners because it's $10 a visit. If you're somehow interested in working out on your holiday the moderately sized gym is well equipped. A stand out for me where the bathrooms (small but nice and modern) and the kind reception staff who was able to check me in 3 hours early when I came by to dropoff my suitcase while exploring the city prior to my check-in.

My only gripe is that my room internet would occasionally cut out for 10 minutes or so however, there's is however a general wifi which you can connect too, not quite a speedy as the room wifi but it does just fine for videos etc

For what I paid, just over $100nz p/n, I would recommend Southwark Apartments.
