Cons
–
Not ideal for small kids or guests with motion sensitivity, dizziness, or certain medical conditions, so families may need a backup plan
–
Booking only from the day before and limited Thu–Sun schedule can complicate planning
–
Car access in downtown Budapest is possible but parking can be tough; transit is the smarter move
–
As a niche VR venue, it’s less internationally famous than flagship attractions (e.g., theme park VR in Orlando or Tokyo), so expectations should be set accordingly
