Used it last month and it didn't look like anything had changed since it was the BR. Used my Amex Platinum for free access. Otherwise, it's a nominal fee. From a recent trip report...

...At about 5:30 I was in the trans-border concourse, which seemed more like a disjointed aging shopping centre... lots of little shops with a few airline gates off to the side. Take out the airplanes and it was a little reminiscent of like a (slightly) upscale Moroccan souk. Just before the "food court" of pretty weak offerings was the old AS Boardroom reborn as a member of the Plaza Premium Lounge group, to which Amex Platinum cardholders had free access. Pleasant but dated lounge that looks exactly the same as 3 years ago when we visited it as the old Boardroom. The only noticeable difference was the addition of hot breakfast, institutional scrambled eggs and sausages. Interesting is that even though it is no longer the AS Boardroom, it still sort of functions as one, no doubt with some deal between AS and Plaza Premium.
