That's some puzzle room. There are so many elements to it that I'm baffled before I even get a good start on the puzzle. What is tho object of the room? Are we supposed to find a treasure, find a way out of the room, free the bears? It's hard to solve a puzzle when you have no idea what kind of solution is wanted. Now, if I were part of a party exploring that room, I'd split us up. Send someone to the center of the pool, have someone play an instrument, go look through the window to see what could be seen, investigate the beds and closets, check on the bees--are they flying free or confined in a hive of some sort. Oh, there are plenty of things to do in a room like this.
