    Many reviewers appreciate the chronological layout of the exhibits, which helps in understanding the progression of events leading up to and during the Holocaust. The personal testimonies and individual stories of survivors are particularly touching and help to humanize the statistics.

    The museum does an excellent job of balancing factual information with emotional impact. While the content is understandably heavy and somber, it's presented in a respectful and educational manner. Some visitors note that certain exhibits can be quite graphic and may not be suitable for young children.

    One aspect that receives consistent praise is the audio guide, which is available in multiple languages and provides valuable context to the exhibits. However, a few visitors mention that some sections of the museum could benefit from more English translations.
