There were literally no “secret doors”, just ordinary doors. With all the tourists in front of you, even if there is a door that does not look like a door, the people in front of you who are getting out will make sure there’s no secret for you to discover. Everyone around us were complaining that there was absolutely nothing to discover, completely contrary to what we were expecting after seeing their false advertisement which honestly was just a childish attempt to make an old mansion sound attractive. Everything you see in the mansion is purchasable, making it feel more like shopping than a special experience.Rooms: The rooms look nice but very uncomfortable.

The scavenger hunt to find the secret passages was awesome. Definitely don't recommend bringing kids as there is a lot of expensive stuff that's easy to break. You will be torn between wanting to read all the memorabilia and finding the secret doors. We had a

Amazing house with so many amazing things. I couldn’t stop saying wow. We got a collection of vintage books and other great things. There is a hot tub/sauna in the cabin.

By far the highlight of our recent trip to DC to celebrate our daughter’s 13th birthday. She was STOKED when we told her about the museum.I purposely didn’t read anything about the O mansion beforehand to have an open mind and the experience surpassed every expectation. The history, memorabilia and of course the secret doors made for a wonderful afternoonOne last tip for families - stairs…lots and lots of stairs. Prepare accordingly! Haha

What an awesome place!!We attended as a surprise gift to me for my birthday, and it did not disappoint. Such a cool place full or amazing things. We ended up finding 14 of the 85 doors and I have to say I was pleasantly surprised with our adventure.Our favorite rooms were definitely the rainbow Pop Culture room, and the Wine Cellar.One of our highlights though was definitely working with Maddie. She was fantastic and fun from start to finish, and it’s clear she loves what she does and enjoys working with people.Thank you O Street for the blast, and thank you Maddie for the laughs! ☺️

I wanted to love it but… Hear me out I almost gave them five stars. The night I went one of the rooms I saw in photos was off limits because of private event. Normally I wouldn’t mind or complain as I’m super easy going but they didn’t disclose this prior to me paying $40 a person. Not only is that one of their super cool rooms but also two cool doors. Overall we had a great time and an experience we found 11 doors. I do wish it had more “doors” some of them weren’t what I would have considered a door. I believe it would be better advertised as museum of curiosities.

The museum was quite fun. We spent a few hours here exploring the different floors and rooms; trying to find the secret doors and passageways. I wish it wasn't quite so hot, and it was also hard to find parking. But would totally do it again!

Had such a fun time here. I found about 5 secret entry ways. Bring your walking shoes cause you will be doing lots of it. Great place for a group of friends or by yourself. You can explore the Mansion for as long as you like. Staff was friendly and polite.

Very fun experience exploring the rooms! Only found 10 secret doors and spent 2 hours here. You can take as long as you want exploring. Each room has fun themes and lots of albums Instruments, clothes and flatware for sale. Some rooms are stacked with delicate items so you have to be very careful. Very unique experience

Finding this place was like finding a secret door! I was looking for a place to visit in DC that allowed some walking, wasn't crowded and gave us lots to talk about. Wow!We spent almost two hours here, just walking around, looking at the rooms and seeing all the things in the various rooms and hallways. I know we didn't see it all, which kind of blows my mind.We found 8 or 9 secret doors, my husband had such a great time and is totally determined to have a secret door or two in our forever home :)The weekend after we visited I recommended this place to both my brother's family and one of my closet friends - I also recommend it to you.There is a lot of walking - up stairs, downstairs, through doors, hallways etc. and there is so much to see (and buy!). And hear - some rooms have music playing, some rooms have a lecture or speech playing and many also have related video on a screen.We had a great time here and are determined to return one day to find some additional doors and rooms.If you are someone who loves guitars, I would suggest you put aside some time and check the guitar collection out - we didn't really study them, but it was a very impressive collection.The two things that stuck out to me most were the sketches of Winne the Pooh and Piglet and the Yellow Submarine ukulele.This place was so much fun to visit, thank you so much!
