The museum is housed in an original aircraft hangar. Sleeping areas are on painted concrete floors—a thermal sleep pad (not a yoga mat) and a sleeping bag rated for outdoor temperatures are strongly recommended.
Gallery safety lighting remains on overnight. While light levels are low, sleep masks may be helpful for light-sensitive sleepers.
