My stay at Breakfree Directors Studios was a mixed bag. The location was excellent, with plenty of restaurants and shops within walking distance. but I was quite disappointed by the noise levels and the insufficient blackout curtains in my room. While the staff were helpful and accommodating, the overall experience left me reconsidering my options for future visits.

Rooms

6.0

The room was clean and comfortable, though I found the lack of proper blackout curtains a real issue, especially since I had a disturbed night due to noise from the adjacent room. A fan in the bathroom would also be a helpful addition, as it got foggy very quickly.

Service

I found the staff to be fantastic. they were always accommodating my requests, like getting a room with an openable window. However, after I paid for wifi, it didn’t work initially, though the staff were helpful in addressing that.

Location

The location is definitely a highlight. being close to Chinatown and just a short walk from many restaurants and the fresh market was fantastic. I also appreciated the easy access to arterial roads.

I was disappointed that the café next door wasn't open on weekends. it would have been nice to grab a bite without venturing too far.

Facilities like dry cleaning and laundry were available, which was convenient. but overall, I expected a bit more given the price of my room.

I had a pleasant stay at Breakfree Directors Studios. the location was excellent, right next to Chinatown and within walking distance to the central markets. The room was clean and comfortable, though it could be a bit tight, and I did have an issue with the bright lights outside my window. Overall, it was a good value for the price and I'd consider returning.

Rooms

8.0

The room was clean and comfortable, which is what I needed for a short stay. However, it felt a bit pokey, and the room labeled as having a queen bed was actually a double. It also had no window to the outside, just a view of the corridor, so if you'd like natural light, it's best to ask at check-in.

Service

10.0

The staff were incredibly helpful and friendly. they quickly accommodated my request for a room with an openable window facing the laneway, which I really appreciated. Check-in was smooth, and they had good information about the area.

The location is fantastic, right beside Chinatown with numerous dining options. it's just a short walk to the central markets and shops. Initially, the area looked a bit industrial, but it was only five minutes from plenty of bars and restaurants.

My stay at Breakfree Directors Studios was a bit of a mixed bag. The room was clean and comfortable for two and I loved the location's proximity to cafes and the vibrant Chinatown, but the small size and noise from the adjoining rooms were drawbacks. Overall, it’s a decent spot if you want convenience in the CBD.

Rooms

My room was comfortable for me and my companion, although it felt a bit cramped. The lighting wasn’t great with just one dim light, and I noticed issues with noise from the corridor and neighboring rooms. Definitely not ideal for a quiet night's sleep.

Service

The staff at Breakfree were friendly and helpful, making the check-in process smooth. However, there were some hiccups related to needing quite a bit of paperwork for security which felt outdated.

I really loved the location. It’s just a short walk to Chinatown and the central market, plus you can hop on electric scooters to get around easily. It’s a nice blend of being close to everything but still in a quieter area.

Dining

There’s a cafe next door that’s perfect for breakfast or coffee, and the options in Chinatown are fantastic. I appreciated having fresh juice and other essentials in the room.

Facilities

7.0

Basic facilities like laundry and dry cleaning services were available, which I found useful. The kitchen was decent enough for a quick meal, but I missed having a window to the outside.

However, I was disappointed with the noise levels, which made for a less-than-restful night. Overall, it delivered decent value for money, but be prepared for some inconveniences.
