The temporary exhibitions are often highlighted as particularly interesting, bringing fresh perspectives to the museum's permanent collection. While some find the entry fee reasonable for the content provided, others feel it could be slightly overpriced for the size of the museum. The museum's location in the heart of Brussels is convenient for tourists exploring the city.
