A Piece of Art
Pros:

It is a piece of Art!
All around the place you feel you're travelling in history. The place shows every little details from the past in a modern and technological way. They did not forget to make it comfortable too. Lots for nice photos and historical real items to see.

Cons:

Location in the middle of a very busy area. No dedicated parking.
Also, they might need a bigger restaurant if they get more busier.
