Have stayed at the Break free on numerous occasions and found it to be it's true namesake - Break free, after a solid day at work it is great to return to what feels like a home from home, large rooms well appointed kitchenette and lounge area that is very comfortable - far better than staying in a basic 4...

I waited a while before doing this review but I'm afraid my opinion hasn't mellowed with time. In Adelaide for the Clipsal 500 we were stuck for accomodation on the Sunday night and about the only option was the BreakFree at $226 for 1 night (with parking). Not a cheap option but Adelaide was full. The room was basic, clean... More

Dear Skeney57 I am sorry to hear the drive back to Sydney was affected by the floods along route. We do indeed have free WIFI in our foyer, all that is required is your own device to connect through (either laptop or phone).

The BreakFree is actually a large cluster of apartments around courtyards with a small foyer area and service desk. It doesn't have the usual hotel facilities like restaurant and pool which we never use. In-room meals, massage and laundry services are available. There are plenty of bars and cafes nearby. For us, a fit couple in our 60s this hotel... More

Stayed here recently for 2 nights for $167 per night. Had a serviced apartment with a small kitchen and outdoor balcony/courtyard. In house secure (non-valet) parking for $15 per day and your room card is your carpark card which means you can go in/out as many times as you like. Room was very clean, split system a/c was very good,... More

This review is based on one night only for a quick business trip. Adelaide is not a large CBD so it's easy to walk to most locations. The room had a kitchen and full size fridge. Shower stall tiny but the shower punched out hot water which was all I needed. Good to see a full size mirror in the... More

I recently stayed with my daughter and had a two bedroom corner apartment. It was what we could have expected from a cheaper motel. The carpets looked like they could've done with a shampoo to tidy it up a bit. For the price, we would've expected a little more. Great location, parking for $15 a day seems to be the... More

Thanks to Robin the helpful deskclerk, we weren't too bothered by the noise, because he gave us a room on the opposite side of the complex, but the booming of piledriver woke me at 6-30am Friday morning. Otherwise, it's a lovely well serviced studio in the heart of town.

I stayed here this time last year, and it was great. The rooms were immaculate and a perfect size with all the necessities and still far enough back off the road to cancel out the noise. The only fault with the whole place is that the reception staff could have been nicer, and not have the "I hate my job"... More
