I don't know if you can elect to pay cash instead.

Very few lounges (in Europe at least) accept cash. Normally my guests are billed through the credit card registered with PP

Which would you choose: "The Club" at Sea-Tac or an Alaska Airlines Boardroom?
Will be there for one hour or so...probably just have a couple beers and a snack. I read somewhere that AS pours complimentary craft beers in its lounge, but I have never been to one.
Leaning towards AS since I'm actually flying them, but also interested if "The Club" is any good. Never heard of it before.

I recently went to both the boardroom and the club at sea. The bloody mary at the club was way better than in the board room although the pancake machine in the boardroom could make for some good breakfast.

Thanks! I'll probably start with the Boardroom since that will be easy. One of these times when I have a bit longer connection there I'll wander over to the Club...

Just be aware that the SEA BR can get really crowded. I visited it back in March (using my PP membership to get in) and it was standing room only.

The Club @ SEA is money!! Nice bar with premium liquor, beer and wine (not self serve) and a good selection of canned and bottled soft drinks and juices. The food is less impressive but nice to have indiv wrapped cookies and chips that you can pack & use later. Not too crowded on a Monday afternoon (then again UA lounge wasn't too busy either).
In sum, The Club would be my first choice in Term-A (UA gates) but not sure I would go out of my way from AS gates, particularly if you are content with wonderful Alaskan beer
UC lounge is tolerable if you don't mind second-rate booze.

I was looking through the PP site, and noticed that some of the lounges indicate that there's a maximum-length stay (like three hours). That's find if you're arriving at the airport for a particular flight, but what happens when there are delays and cancellations? Do they throw you out, or charge you a second time?

Anytime you bring in a guest, it will cost you $27. No matter what. Guests always cost $27 apiece, on the first entry, the 11th entry, or the 100th entry. It's always $27 per guest no matter what. It doesn't matter what kind of Priority Pass you get, guests always cost $27.
No charge.
(moral - be careful with "always" and "never")
