No T-Mobile at BOS.
One thing I like about DCA is that there is a private changing room in conjunction with the bathroom. Otherwise LGA, BOS and DCA are very similar and they are never crowded when I use them.
One that stands out as being crappy is PIT.

I personally really like the club at LAX. It's small, but it does not get crowded, and it truly a welcome relief from the masses of people congregating at the WN gates. Terminal 1 is very congested, with little entertainment value besides watching the WN flyers jockeying for their position in the cattle call, so it's a godsend to have a quiet lounge to pass the time before boarding. It's also a few steps away from the food court, allowing for easy access to eats if you don't feel like overpaying for club cuisine.

All US clubs are far more comfortable than UA clubs.
P.S. SFO gets another demerit because they don't sell food. Good luck getting anything barely palatable to eat in the amongst rest of the US gates in Terminal 1

Envoy lounge in PHL when returning from LGW?
Can you use the Envoy lounge in PHL when waiting for a connection between a flight in Envoy Class from LGW to a Domestic First Class flight (probably in C concourse) or just the US Airways club between B & C? I noticed some major delays in the past few days.

I used one of my club passes in Boston yesterday. I have to say that although the lounge itself isn't that great (it's nice and big and empty, but no t-mobile, hard to find power outlets, and the soda fountain wasn't working), the staff is absolutely fantastic. The ladies there are really a class act. I let them know that they are a great example of why I continue to fly US despite all the crap that they are going through. They really seemed touched by my kind words.
Next time I go through Boston, I'm going to drop them off a box of chocolates or candy as a thank you.
^ ^ to the staff at the BOS Club.

I'm pretty much only in and out of PHL, and have found the club (B/C) there to be pretty decent with an occassional mouse running through for entertainment. The lady behind the bar on weekdays always knows what I want before I ask and that helps. Had my first stop at the F terminal last Saturday. The club is small but cozy and the staff was friendly.

The club itself is decent...TMobile, view of the gates, fairly well lit...the agents are the only thing making it special.

Can't say that I've ever really had a bad experience at any of the Clubs. LGA and CLT have always stood out to me for their service. I like the spaciousness of the main Club in CLT. However, the best club I've encountered is TPA. In addition to being an excellent facility, the staff there have gone above and beyond to help with my travel needs and business services on several occasions.

I feel bad now that I didn't speak up while he was there.
This is my first time in the BOS club and it is quite nice. I agree that LGW is great, but it's a bit of a special case. I loved SFO when it was open, always found LAX a bit small, cold and sterile, and PIT is mediocre. The PHL club is nice in physical layout, but there never seems to be anything (food, drink, reading material, etc.) available when I'm there.
