Lounge access is not a benefit for gold though, and i got a text telling me as gold i can only get continental breakfast at Lavazza, which i read the reviews it is a beverage and a pastry only.

PS. Despite i already paid for king executive, at checkin they want to upcharge me $55 for king studio lake view, looks like this place is really straight for everything, they wouldnt even give me one category upgrade to king lake view room.
