"I was expecting it to look scary, but it was not at all. Very creative, organized. Clean, and informative. I know nothing about toros. Now I have a very good basic info."

"A very small museum, but nice to be able to see paintings by local artists, there should be more information on the cultural theme. You could say that it is more of a small local art gallery than a place where they talk about bullfighting. The truth is that it is good to learn a little more about this city and the subject, but you finish it in 20 minutes. It has wheelchair access, however, there is no parking and there is always traffic in the area."
