Beautiful and eclectic interior which a great selection of drinks from hard to soft liquor. It kind of feels like an indie arcade and it's amazing. It gets super busy later on so it's worth arriving a little earlier to beat the queues.

Really well made museum, with plenty of information, in videos, paper, objects. All the surroundings and illumination give a immersion feeling.
It feels like the museum really do accomplish its objective to give you a bit of the terror feeling and understand a bit better the experience of people who suffered during the nazi and Soviet periods.
