I'd be interested in people's opinions on the external look of the place - it's had mixed reviews here. The recreated 19th Century room looks pretty cool to me (it's shown in the video at about 2:30 onwards for the impatient ones among you).
The inside is gorgeous! But the exterior is ghastly! I keep expecting some knight in shining armor to jump out of that chainmail it's wrapped in.
