Not Really Worth It

I guess there were some neat exhibits, but it's not worth the money, there is no flow at all to the museum, people are milling around, but it's not large enough to accommodate all of the people they let in there is not real "tour to speak of". There are better ways throughout the city to spend your time and your money.

Expensive for what it is

Very disappointed although my 13 year old niece thought it was fun. Very over priced. Small number of exhibits and it was all a little tired. On the plus side the staff were lovely and helpful and it was not crowded. If I had my time again I would have done something else. Overly priced for what it is.

Check it out!

It’s a super cool exhibit that kids will love. Actually my husband and I enjoyed it as well. I fell like it should be longer.

It lacks more imagination

I think they lack a little more imagination, and more places to visit; the ticket price is very expensive to see so little and enjoy so little.

Nice exhibits but not...

Nice exhibits but not handicapped accessible. There were no chairs in museum. Someone had to bring that out to me and even then I had to share the chair my coworkers.

Considering the ticket...

Considering the ticket price, I expected a much better experience. Many of the attractions felt rushed. Unfortunately, the visit did not meet my expectations, and I would not recommend it to others.

Smallest Museum Ever

This museum is very small. The amount to enter this museum is not worth it. Me and my daughter were very disappointed. We were expecting for more but a small 1st floor and half room on the 2nd floor is really small. Not coming back here again.
