3/5 - Okay
Verified traveler
Statues/sculptures were wonderful. Long line to get in. Hot and crowded inside. After getting past the 'David' statue there was less crowding and many worthwhile displays. Staff always seemed to be in a bad mood. For example, I asked for directions to the men's room and the attendant told me to just exit the building as it was too close to closing. We witnessed a shouting contest between someone who asked about the line waiting time and one of the staff members outside the building. Maybe not so bad if they'd advertise 'free entertainment'.
5/5 - Excellent

We had the BEST guide with skip the line tour. And early in the morning the crowd was ok. No comparison to the dreadful guide we had in the afternoon....
