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.

I didn't look online clearly enough, but the rooms are crazy tiny, ok for 1 person, but super tight for 2 people. I was there with my wife, and climbing over each other to get in bed, as you cannot access both sides of the bed is not our idea of a hotel stay. I'm a big guy, and there was not enough room in bathroom to dry after a shower. My fault I should have paid more attention when booking
