text: This was actually the first of many venues visited by myself and my fiance now husband for our wedding ceremony The photos online look amazing and we were anxious to visit the property We called and made an appointment and arrived a couple of minutes early We stood in front of the open door of the office for nearly minutes all the while the two employees inside who could clearly see us joked and laughed We finally stepped out back to take a tour ourselves nnWe were not nearly as impressed as we thought we would be The place is in need of major repairs and the attention to detail just is not there The windows looked as if they had not been cleaned in a very long time as they were coated with smears fingerprints gooplike substances and a layer of the deserts dust The floor of the main ball room was absolutely disgusting and the womens and mens bathrooms smelled HORRIBLE seriously they smelled like a wellused PortAPotty after midnight at an allyoucaneat deepfried sausage event nnWe were just about to walk out the door when one of the two employees who had been jibberjabbering in the office came to stop us When we told her that it was over minutes past our appointment time and we needed to get going she inquired as to why we just did not come into her office and sit down Really So it is our fault that we did not begin the meeting on time We told her that the place just did not look how we expected it to look She remarked that they had had a big event the weekend before and that the place still had not been cleaned That might be true but there were things that looked like they had not been cleaned in months nnFurther the castle is situated in an industrial area which is currently under construction If you are planning an event that does not take place in the evening construction noise is a very real possibility
