I had a unique experience staying at The Liberty Hotel, where the historic charm as a former jail added an intriguing twist. The staff were friendly, and the location made it easy to explore nearby attractions. However, the room I initially received lacked a view and wasn't as clean as I hoped, which detracted from the overall luxury feel. Ultimately, the upgrade to the Ebersol Suite on my last night was a highlight, offering fantastic views and more space.

I recently stayed at The Liberty Hotel and had a mix of experiences. While I appreciated the hotel's unique atmosphere and location, which is close to many attractions and public transport, I was disappointed with the service and the state of the room. The dining experience was enjoyable but came at a high cost. Overall, I felt it didn’t quite live up to its luxury claims. 😕🏨
