CONS: Went during a warm summer weekday in August and many of the more busy galleries were uncomfortably hot and long lines at the ladies rest room as well a regular people using the handicapped restroom to jump the line. If you need access to the lifts, be prepared to wait and it's segmented to multiple locations including getting into the museum from Great Russell. The lifts are small and if you have a wheelchair/stroller, it's a much longer day. One of the outdoor lifts broke while we were using it. One star less due to that. PROS: Able to reserve a wheelchair ahead of time and express line for accessibility. Highly recommended to go early and get tickets ahead of time for the special exhibits and timed entry galleries. Exhibit wise, incredible world class collection of historic and cultural artifacts. Overwhelmingly stunning and extensive collection of decorative arts including collections of coins/monies and clocks. There are items there not seen anywhere else in the world in one location. Worth while tolerating the above mention inconveniences.
