New Prestige Suites on the 747-8i. Upstairs or Downstairs?

Hello. I'm flying JFK-ICN in 2 weeks on the new 747-8i in the new Prestige Suites situated both upstairs and downstairs. I know many people prefer upstairs for the "exclusivity" but my major concern is physical comfort. I was just curious if there was a difference in temperature, noise, humidity, seat comfort, etc... Also any info would be very helpful regarding these new suites as I've only flown KE in the Kosmo Suites 1.0 and the flat business class seats in the A380. Thank you.

Can't comment on downstairs, but upstairs is great. It's very quiet and there's a ton of space to the side of the window seats due to the curvature of the fuselage. The overhead bins are smaller upstairs, but I didn't have an issue stowing my bag.

How was the flight? I am flying ICN-JFK on the 29th Feb, have a seat upstairs. Was wondering whether there is a noticeable difference

just to add, if flying with somebody, the downstairs middle seats are the only one not staggered.
