Good parking and access at the entrance. No automatic doors, but helpful staff who would open them. Once inside, very steep slope down to the museum. There is a hand rail. Had to go down backwards ( manual chair user but if you have very good back wheel balance you might manage down, using the handrail for safety) . However, getting back up was not possible without assistance. The next couple of levels of the museum had much better slopes that could be managed independantly. Disabled toilet was on the lower level and was large and easy to access.

This would be a 5 if it was not for the one very steep slope down to the museum once inside.
