1. It was smaller than the first 'lake view' room, but we really loved the Executive Lounge, which is worth the price of the upgrade because you are provided with free buffet breakfast daily, free drinks and appetizers in the evening (alcohol for a small reasonable fee), free cans of soft drinks any time, and free computer usage.
