This museum is a total blast! There's so much too see...leave yourself a couple hours. I plan on going again!

What a cool idea! Such fun rooms to rummage through and explore. Many cool vintage nicknacks to look at.

A wonderful show. Your staff is charming and very helpful. We hadn't been to the Mansion in over a decade and it reminded us of what we've been missing. We'll be back again soon. And Felix was the best!

Looking for stuff to do while we stayed in Alexandria and found this place, and was curious as to what it'd be like. Was pleasantly surprised at how much fun my friend and I had walking around looking for secret doors. We also enjoyed walking through the various rooms and looking at the decor and different styles of the times. The stuff in there seems really random at times, and other times, you just find yourself gawking at the fact that all this stuff is contained in one residence. I still wonder how it simultaneously operates as a hotel, because there is stuff literally everywhere you look. The staff was kind and informative, I'm still fascinated about the fact that Rosa Parks lived there for 10 years (still not sure we made it to her room, but we definitely didn't see everything for the 3-4 hours we were there. Time flew! We found a little over 10 doors and we still discovered a room we missed the second time we went back for 10 extra minutes. Some doors are bound to be accidentally revealed to you when other people are also looking around, but it's no big deal. Would definitely bring a group back here to do this as a team building exercise or something with some friends. Also, highkey want to find more doors. If you're ever in DC or Alexandria, definitely check this place out. The seeming randomness of it this place is experience enough, and on top of that, you may really enjoy it!
