Yes, probably a matter of taste. To me, a windowless cubicle in the middle of the terminal feels like these terrible smoking lounges, just without the smoking. I enjoy the apron view, some don’t.

Seat Assignment 23 hours before flight?
Haven't flown LH in a long time. I have a TATL ticket on United to FRA, and connecting to LH for a continental flight. United sent an email that said I could get a seat assignment on the LH flight (economy) 23 hours before the flight. Does that mean 23 hours before the LH flight departs FRA, or 23 hour before the UA flight departs the USA?
Just call LH in the states?

I bought a return FRA-VIE, with both legs scheduled to operate by a wide body (OS 767 and LH A340). I reserved a seat for each leg, and for both I had to pay a fee of 17 EUR/leg as I booked a preferred seat, which happens to be a Premium Econony seat each case.
Last minute OS substituted the 767 by an A320 and I got a random window seat allocated at boarding. Am I entitled to get the seat booking fee reimbursed ? And if yes, to whom should I asked ? It was booked via Lufthansa.

If the new seat is not preffered, you have some recourse.

Zurich Swiss non-Schengen Senator lounge bathrooms?
Hiya LHers,
I'm a *Gold connecting through Zurich tomorrow on my way back to SFO. One review of the non-Schengen Swiss lounge on Lounge Buddy says there are no bathrooms in the lounge?? I have a four-hour layover and so plan on camping out there for an extended period of time, and no bathrooms would be really annoying. Is this true? (If so, I'm gonna see what I can do to SDC and connect through FRA or MUC as per my usual.)
Thanks!

The showers are shared between the Senator and Business class lounge, and there is often quite a long waitlist for them unless you're there in non-rush hours (better to use the shower facilities in the Arrival lounge or the A lounge, if that's an option)
