The whole experience was terrible. Had we not arrived so late after a long journey and with a toddler, we would have found more suitable accommodations. Getting to our rooms was a nightmare. We were a group of 4 adults and 1 toddler and we were given rooms across the property from each other. We were given horrible directions to the rooms themselves which were very far from the reception desk-- ultimately the front desk attendant had to personally walk us to the room because it was so far and complicated to get to. The rooms themselves were horrific. Immediately upon entering, I noticed large insects on the ground, massive flying wasp-like beetles and dead flies on the floor and near the windows. The bathroom floor was completely wet because the toilet was leaking. The floorboards were coming apart to the point that if you didn't pay attention, the raised faux wood panels could cut your toes off. The bathroom was riddled with mold and revolting sewage smells emanated from the drain in the sink to the point I didn't want to use the water to even wash my hands. I used bottled water I had brought with us to brush my teeth. The room was hot upon arrival but at least they had a loud but working AC unit in the room. The room door lock was wobbly which didn't make me feel safe especially considering how far the room was. The property could be better lit especially considering how remote the rooms are in this "castle"-inspired property. The pool was gross so don't count on that.
might be a nice view if you could see out of the dirty window
moldy restroom in bad state of disrepair

The room was beyond neglected! Furniture was not only outdated but broken. If you like rustic furniture and tube televisions then is your thing. The door’s latch didn’t even work properly. The place is okey, good for a few pics, but you can tell it needs some good maintenance. The ceilings in the bathroom were moldy. I didn’t even stayed there, went for a different hotel.

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities
The room smelled bad, of mold and fungus. We opened both windows and the smell never went away. The window screens were ripped and the curtains were dirty and couldn't open all the way. The furniture was in bad shape. There were no towels in the bathroom nor was drinking water offered. There was only one outlet and it was far from the beds. I asked for an extension cord so that I could plug in my CPAP and I was given one that was made of several lengths of wire taped together. When I turned down the blankets to go to bed, I found Kleenex in the bed, which makes me think that the sheets hadn't been changed after the last guest.
