The museum was not entirely what I expected but excellent nonetheless. It is new and very modern, with a heavy tech emphasis. There are a lot of interactive displays and multimedia experiences. We had a lot of fun with the training simulators, but we went at a very slow time, so we were able to play the games multiple times. The displays of torches and medals are outstanding, and there are a lot of artifacts from various athletes, including the original Miracle on Ice scoreboard. There is also a separate display for the 1972 Munich Olympics. One of the most interesting areas was where you could page through each Olympics and watch a short documentary about each one, so we made sure to watch the 1936 Berlin video as well as many others. The staff was very friendly and ready to answer questions. The only two issues I had was that we had to pay for parking and that the gift shop was way less comprehensive than I thought it would be.
