Visitors appreciate the well-preserved architecture and the opportunity to see the different sections of a traditional hamam up close. The museum's informative displays, often with English translations, help international tourists understand the cultural importance of these public baths.
However, some reviewers note that the museum is relatively small and can be explored quickly. A few visitors mention that more interactive elements or guided tours could enhance the experience. Additionally, accessibility might be an issue for some, as the historic building has stairs and narrow passages.
