I'm here on a Monday Morning at 0930 and had a great experience. This place is spacious yet I've only seen 5-10 guests, likely due to the time.
I wished...

I'll start by saying that this is a spacious, roomier Admiral Club. It's comfortable enough. I often wonder if many people would like a quieter zone, minus...

Admission is $59/pp unless you have the Citi/American Airlines credit card. We had 5 hours to kill before our flight, so we decided to pay the $59 day pass...

This Admirals Club is located on the second floor not far after you passed the security. The escalator is behind the restaurant.
It's better to wait here...

Very comfortable lounge. I am disappointed in the complementary food- healthy soup choices seemingly have been removed in favor of one creamy potato/cheddar soup option and a hot Mac and cheese choice. Can’t imagine why theses choices were made without snothrf option. Please consider my feedback. The food really does make a big difference for tired travelers. Thank you.
Nothing special. Employees are nice. Food is sub par. Bathrooms always seem to be in disrepair which is kind of disgusting. Wish there were better options. Symptomatic of the general decline of AA.
Nicest Admirals club I’ve visited…clean, quiet/no cell phone area much appreciated…a welcome respite.

Natasha is very sweet, she also was very helpful and very courteous!
Average quite US lounge. Bartender and reception staff were nice and helpful. Place was clean and picked up. Would be nice if they had an area that had low-level lighting.
Snacks were chips/salsa, cookies, peanut mixture. We had free beer and soda. They do need more power outlets since we just arrived from International flight and needed 4 items to charge.
They do need a area where guests can place used glassware, plates etc — some of us do pickup for ourselves even in a lounge.
We went out to grab food since there are no meals here and not allowed to take in.
They must get magazines for free since they are worth it (do not need to see another Real Estate or Golf magazine ever again!). There were no real newspapers (NY Times, USA today) found. Men`s bathroom could be bigger since we wanted to freshen up after our 6- hour flight.
