Iberia lounges at MAD Madrid-Barajas (T4/T4S)

Departure lounges
Iberia Premium Lounge Dalí
Located in T4 immediately after security at Level 2, if departing or connecting to Schengen, IB operated London bound flights (A330/A350 excluded) or domestic flights: it is a decent lounge with free food, drinks and showers. Open 06:00 to 23:00.

Iberia Premium Lounge Velázquez
Open daily 06:00 to 01:00
Located in T4S (Zone "S") at Level 1 at the edge of the duty free store. Open 24 hours, for departures to non-Schengen and long haul flights; self-serve food, drinks, wine bar (Rincón del vino), restaurant w/ limited hours, targeted to departing intercontinental overnight Iberia flyers.
Lunch buffet 14:00 – 16:30, Dinner 21:00 onwards, Bistro 21:00 - 00:30
When you exit the lounge and make your way to your departure gate, veer left through the duty free store. You can use Starbucks as a visual cue. If you veer right, you will end up in a cul-de-sac.
Arrivals lounge
Sala de Llegadas
Located in the main T4 arrivals hall at level -1. The lounge is equipped with showers and a breakfast room.
This is not a oneworld lounge. Access is provided free of charge to business class passengers who have arrived on an Iberia operated flight of more that 4 hours. Iberia Plus Platinum, Gold, and Singular members may also use the lounge provided they have also arrived on an Iberia operated flight of more than 4 hours. Paid entrance is also available
Lounge hopping
Terminal 4 and 4S are joined by a subterranean train; it is unlikely to lounge hop as the gatekeepers are rather strict about using the appropriate lounge.

Flying round trip BOS-MAD (first time in MAD) in October. I'll be in PE but have OW Sapphire status so I should be able to enter the lounge base on status.
I also have Priority Pass.
Based on what I read, MAD-BOS (don't need an arrivals lounge) will leave from T4S, correct?
Assuming yes, my two lounge options are Valezquez (IB/OW) and Neptuno (PP), correct?
Which is better? Make sense to lounge hop?
Just looking to confirm
Thank you

Am I right that I can enter the T4S lounge at 00:01 for an afternoon departure (non-Schengen flight in J)? I arrive at 23:00 and normally I would go for a hotel but the prices (last weekend of September) are ridiculously high.
Also, can I check in luggage before I enter the lounge? I'll try to travel HBO but perhaps will not be able to do that.

Did you get an answer, I have a similar scenario, arrive at MAD at 22:30 and have a flight next morning, and wondering if I can access the Iberia T4S lounge from 00:01 and save a night's hotel cost and hassle with the shuttle bus.
I am flying Iberia economy but have OWS status

I arrive at 23:00 this evening and leave at 08:00 tomorrow; €300 seems too much hassle for a hotel so am hoping to lounge hop. OWE in J?

Are there any areas in the Dali lounge to get some sleep? Any private quiet areas in the lounge? I have PP and Playa Mayor lounge is an option as well.
I'm getting off a BOS-MAD flight at 6:40am and connecting onto SVQ at 11:50pm.

The "rooms" are divided with walls and a curtain for privacy.

Arriving BOS-MAD in Business class and connecting to PMI in J as well.
Would like to use the bigger/better Velaz lounge in 4S despite the Schengen flight leaving from 4. It seems the agents would prefer to direct me to 4 and not let me stay in 4S?
Any recent experiences or recommendations for what I should do. Would really like to visit Iberia's flagship lounge on this inbound itinerary.

It's at both ends of the lounge, so in effect two chances of finding the ice cream.
