Interior Room Shots Settings…losing my mind!

although i have been taking photos for many years, i am always a beginner.  having tremendous difficulty getting decent shots of this particular space.  the space is all white with white lighting fixtures and dark furniture.  i can not find appropriate setting to distinguish between the lighting fixtures and bright white walls with the lighting turned on.  i'm going from f9 to f22 and bracketing multiple images for each stop.  nikon d3300 18-55 1:3.5   sample awful image

I would consider, given the challenging DR in the scene,
shooting three shots: EV 0, EV -2, and EV -4. Stacking
the two better shots should be then a child's play.

Light is free… capturing it is not!
