A few reviews mention that the ticket prices are somewhat high, although many feel the experience justifies the cost. Some visitors with limited mobility have reported challenges navigating certain areas of the museum.

    The museum's café and gift shop receive mixed reviews, with some praising the quality of the food and unique merchandise, while others find them overpriced.
