Best lounge option at KIX?
Looking for advice on which lounge would be best to spend about two hours during an upcoming connection at KIX. Being Star Gold (thanks to United 1K status) I should have access to two lounges: ANA and Thai. I also have Priority Pass Select (thanks to AMEX Platinum card).
My initial thought is just to go to the ANA lounge, but was wondering if there might be better options in the terminal? It's not my first trip to KIX, but it is my first trip through there in 13 years!

I went to the Aeroplaza Lounge pre-flight last week. I got my boarding pass first, but when I got there they said just a digital version showing you are flying out that day would be okay.
Used Rakuten Priority Pass. PP gets you a three hour stay plus two choices: one food or 2 beers/chuhai or shower
Japanese Gold cards (like DC) will also get you access to the lounge for 2hrs, with free non-alcoholic drinks.
Plan on it taking 5-10 minutes to walk from Aeroplaza to Security, so best to leave at least 60 minutes before boarding.
