I was disappointed with how small the room is, the smell of cleaning chemicals was overwhelming, and when the lights are off it is pitch black as had no window. Felt like a pod.

As a no-frills hotel in the center of the city, the Break free is great. Small rooms, but they have everything you'd expect, including a fridge! Comfortable bed. We've stayed there before and would stay again.
