A Hotel for Urban Explorers
BreakFree is the ideal hotel for a solo traveler wanting to explore Christchurch. Most attractions are easily within walking distance.
Most of the single rooms are quite small, but functional with exceptionally comfortable beds. This hotel is ideal for the intrepid traveler that wants to explore Christchurch instead of spending a lot of time in the hotel room.
A shout out to the front desk staff who have been professional and gracious during my two stays at this hotel.

The hotel was in a nice area which was nice to be able to walk for food and shopping. The room was clean and my girls loved the bunk beds. The bunk beds were extremely squeaky which could wake you yo at night but overall a great stay.

Good option but not for long stays
No closet in the room and only 2 hangers over the desk, so if you hang a shirt it may occlude your laptop. Some furniture half broken. Apart from that, good room, comfortable bed, and excellent location.
