Doesn't look like a museum from outside but it's very well laid out inside. I went with friends and family. I'm not that big of a fan but my wife's cousin came down all the way from Wisconsin, just to visit Selena's museum.

There was a very polite lady in the front. The guy that walked us to the area where Selena's trophies and Porsche was located, was also very polite. The only people that were rude was Selena's sister (I don't know her name since she didn't give us the time of day) and her dad.

First we saw Selena's sister, we said hi and wanted to confirm with her if she was Selena's sister. She said yes while walking right by us. She never stopped walking to introduce herself or at least shake our hand. That's why I don't know her name, she couldn't give use one minute of her time to introduce herself.

AB Jr (Selena's dad) I think was even worse in my opinion. We actually caught him in the hallway and asked if he could do a tour sometime in the day. We were willing to wait and see if he had time that whole day. We also informed him that we were with a fan that was all the way from Wisconsin that only went to Corpus to visit Selena. I had read in some reviews that AB was the tour guide for the museum. I thought that was cool and it convinced me to tag along. We wouldn't even had visited Corpus if it wasn't for Selena. Even with all that info we gave him, he told us that he only does it once in a while when he feels like it and didn't have time for us that day. Really!!! After so many years you don't appreciate your daughters legacy lives on and you won't take a few minutes of your time to show us around. I understood that he was busy but I didn't understand why he couldn't schedule another tour sometime that afternoon.

If you're in Corpus, I would recommend you stop by the museum but don't expect a whole lot from Selena's sister or dad, they really disappointed my family and me.
