The current atrium at the International Spy museum has been described as dark‚ unwelcoming‚ ineffective in its use of space‚ and lacks the proper signage and visitor flow. All these opinions came from employees at the International Spy museum‚ so one can image how the many guests that visit the museum each year must feel.
