"This is a nice little museum if you are really into movies or John Lennon. It's more of a landmark for the Almeria film industry. When we were there, there was a guided tour in spanish. Some videos and inscriptions are in english. The people working there do not speak english but were very nice. The recptionist played the videos in english for us. There is an elevator in the back if you need it to reach the upper floor."
