Exhibits and Layout
Pros:
"This was a fantastic museum for seeing vintage transport, displaying buses and cars in their colourful old liveries!"
"Brilliant, informative little museum. loads of things to see, loads of things that the kids could interact with."
"Absolutely incredible place, loads to look around, engaging for all ages - and all free!"
"Great selection of exhibits, mostly from the Victorian/Edwardian eras but up to the 70s, including many diaramas with sound to make the visit more immersive."
"The museum's recreated street scenes are incredibly detailed, with authentic period buildings and vehicles that give a real sense of what life was like in Hull at various points in its history."
"Magnificent display of transport through the ages, and various displays of old street shops and how people used to live."
"Great examples of transport through history."
Cons:
"The museum's do not have any refreshment facilities."
"Wish it was a touch more interactive with more accessible for the kids to sit in the cars and the buses etc."
"It was quite interesting with a fair amount of different items, but it was a pity that so many parts of it were closed 'due to Government Covid restrictions'."
"There's a lot to see and it's easy to miss parts because of the slightly haphazard layout, they should maybe consider an IKEA style route through to maximise visitor experience."
"The biggest let down though was a lot of dust on the exhibits."
"There's no café or snacks in the museums."
"The only downside was the fact there wasn't as much open due to COVID restrictions, in particular I was disappointed the bicycle history area was closed."
Experience and Engagement

"This is a fantastic place for children and adults it gives a real insight of the past with regards to transport, shops, and a general history of life in the past."
"Fantastic museum with large range of exhibits."
Cons:
"Despite being named after the Randy Crawford song 'Streetlife' there is surprisingly little reference to this or any of her other songs inside the building."
"Also very dark."
"Not all of it is as interesting but it depends what floats your boat."
"Very disappointing and walked round in 10 minutes, very aware of COVID restrictions but still very disappointed."
"Unfortunately the Streetlife museum is no good for a small child at the moment as they're not allowed to touch or climb on any of the usual attractions."
"Advertised as now full open. Went with the kids lots or areas still closed due to covid or out of order."
"If there was an admission fee I'd have asked for refund."
