I've just been there for the first time: one of the best general *G/biz lounges in the network IMO. I love the "open air" balcony seating area over the shopping area. Just one odd thing there: it seems there is a very limited availability of restrooms for the size of the lounge (I found just 3 mens stalls). Directions to the lounge are not obvious IMO. From the central shopping area take the elevator up to 6th floor. Don't use the escalators, they end a level below the lounge.
