It could have something to do with where you’re code is. Is it in a template file?

The best suggestion I can give without understanding where you’re using this is to add

global $post;

like this

$post_object = get_field('location');

if( $post_object ): 

	// override $post
        global $post;
	$post = $post_object;
	setup_postdata( $post ); 
        
	?>
    <div>
        	<h3><a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></h3>
    	<span>Post Object Custom Field: <?php the_field('test'); ?></span>
    </div>
    <?php wp_reset_postdata(); // IMPORTANT - reset the $post object so the rest of the page works correctly ?>
<?php endif;
