I think all the bad reviews must be about the same apartment ? Our apartment was very dated. We had to use a fork to get plug out of the bath. Black tape for fix of pipe work (visible) and floor filthy. Isn’t one bedroom. Front door opens straight into bedroom area and they have a screen you can pull across (but then can’t get around the bed if you do) more like a studio apartment. Definitely not one bedroom. Walked around barefoot and feet were very dirty quite soon. The main issue was the balcony. The chairs were extremely worn/split fabric. We did have a sea view if you looked directly in front but the main view was of the backs and side of restaurants inc McDonald’s. So bin areas/parking etc. so we also had noise from all their huge extractors and the food smells. apartments own air con extractor is located on the balcony which is noisy. Turning that off helps slightly ? All this meant we didn’t really use the balcony, which was disappointing as that’s a main reason we booked this. Photos very misleading.cant believe the cost tbh as we have had so much better for less. We expected to be able to enjoy breakfast /a glass of wine on the balcony. This was impossible. The location is really good, (very noisy from pub til late on a Saturday) staff friendly. Apparently we had a very good apartment when we asked at checking in?? I assume that was a standard reply as it honestly is very poor. Also WiFi is additional cost? Fab area but book somewhere else.

We’d not fully realised just how close to the esplanade and the whole range of restaurants and shops immediately on our doorstep. We were there a week and hired a car dior a couple of days choosing Europcar because their vehicles were parked in the hotel carpark - so no parking fees - guaranteed parking after a day trip and drop off at the airport - so no transfers either. Staff were welcoming and friendly. The garden room we rented was perfect for us…with an adequate kitchen ann a bbq in the garden. Would fully recommend this place.

The BreakFree Cairns boasts some amazing staff, central location and an aging building with odd unit design. Our experience had us "jokingly" terming it the BreakDown Royal Harbour. In hindsight, we feel we ought to have been partially refunded for the inconveniences. On the positive side Central location *Comfy beds *Clean *Excellent staff, mostly. One man (Valter) was 5 star... hope you get him for service! He's incredible. *Spacious lounge area, although no powerpoints or lamps near sofa for reading at night. *Lovely gardens and pool. *Book share area. It may have been a one off, but unfortunately our 9 night stay wasn't smooth at all. The room was more suited to the younger person or a couple, not two more mature ladies. * Unfortunately, we had no cold water on our first day. This was rectified. * The spa with shower was difficult to get into and also very slippery so we were given a non slip mat. * The bathroom was not really suitable for twin share travellers and better for couples as it had only glass petitions and no privacy from the outside world. We were on the ground floor. * The washing machine broke down completely. * Bedroom was extremely small, had no natural light and lacked privacy and had no room for two suitcases. * Kitchen was pretty but impractical -no dishwasher, no pantry space, no oven, had to ask for basics like salad bowls etc Things were rectified by the staff, but our good experiences at the Breakfree were few. Location was great!

Excellent location within walking distance to wide variety of dining options. On the Esplanade with easy access to all facilities. The apartment was quite basic, windowless bedroom with a ceiling fan, cooking facilities minimal and basic, no dishwasher, old microwave. No dining table, only a very old table and chairs on the balcony, and stools at the kitchen bench. Uncomfortable sofa. Staff very helpful, informative and friendly. Parking available on site

We enjoyed our stay. The location was wonderful. Our room was on 6th floor and had terrific views. The room was spacious and comfortable. The shower is over the bath which isn’t ideal and the lighting in the bathroom is pretty ordinary however all in all we would stay again and would recommend to others.
