BreakFree Adelaide's location is a double-edged sword for nightlife enthusiasts. Positioned close to CBD, the hotel grants easy access to a plethora of entertainment venues and nightclubs, making it a prime choice for those keen on experiencing the vibrant pulse of Hindley Street's adult entertainment. However, the appeal of its proximity to nightlife does come at a cost.

Guests noted a recurring theme of nocturnal noise with disturbances ranging from street noises and late-night revelers to music playing late into the early hours from nearby establishments. The cacophony of passing traffic, revving engines and disruptive behavior from drunken patrons have also been mentioned, often affecting the quality of sleep. The hustle and bustle of Hindley Street, in particular, seems to contribute significantly to the overall noise levels.

Despite the noise, reviewers appreciated the hotel’s cleanliness and strategic location. While the absence of free parking—costing AUD 19 per night—was pointed out, it seems to be a minor inconvenience compared to the bigger picture.
