Do the rooms in the East Tower have separate tub and shower or only a walk in shower?

The lounge is the new tower is always open, the one is the old tower is only open when the hotel is busy, mostly weekends. When both are open they try to direct Globs to the one in the old tower because the one is the new tower is filled with local families, but if both are open you are free to go to either, or both, if you want.
At least that was the situation last year.

.....and yet, they're an airport hotel and in many ways (definitely including location), they're the best airport hotel for ICN. Also, they didn't seem to have this problem/attitude before the new tower was built and they became a Grand Hyatt rather than just a Hyatt Regency.

BTW, at the time of my reservation and around the time I checked out, there were three suite categories that specifically were standard suites according to the text in the descriptions, while at least one suite type available on line was not considered a standard suite. [Of the three, I picked the one I wanted, but was given one that I would not have chosen.] I suspect that there's a Presidential Suite etc. in addition to the categories that you can easily see on their website.

I did, with a TSU, but it wasn't the suite category that was confirmed by my My Hyatt Concierge. [I need to follow up on what happened.]
