The exhibit was very impressive. I particularly loved the everyday objects from Pompeii. We were planning a visit to Pompeii the following week so this exhibit gave us all some appreciation for what we would see. The displays were well received explained and accessible for easy viewing

    It wasn't mentioned at the beginning that it would take two hours for the tickets to be available. We drove to the museum without a ticket and were already expecting to pay again. It seems that the alleged waiting time for entry was not caused by the museum, but by them. Museum was not overcrowded. But 4€ extra per ticket is not reasonable
