Concierge lounge and pool deck access

Does your room key gain you access to concierge lounge and spa pool? Do they check?

You use your  room key to gain entry to both

While that was true for the spa pool on Riviera (12/2021), I don't think that was the case on Sirena (11/2022) for its spa pool. (Of course, only the larger O class have the concierge lounge.)

One needs their room key for entry to both. On the Sirena last October & November the door lock was not functional for the Spa deck, so open for all. Hate to assume anything, but would guess it’s been repaired by now.

Spa deck doors are occasionally left unlocked by accident or intentionally.

Concierge lounge is a comfy place to sit, drink coffee, and  watch big screen tv.  The concierge may be helpful getting info.  On most recent cruise, we had an aft deck 10 cabin. It was not near the lounge. Went once.  We found the Barista coffee bar has better coffee, snacks, and better seating inside or outside on deck.  With new longer hours, the coffee bar is excellent.  It’s open to 10 pm.  
the spa pool deck is not a great attraction.  Went once. It was empty.  Wind and no shade.  Enjoyed my own veranda or a nice shaded chaise on pool deck.  Pool deck has bar service.  For me, the concierge lounge and entry to spa pool deck is not attractive.
