Acceptable stay with some issues

slow service lukewarm food

The breakfast selection was good (especially the pastries).

The service at dinner was slow. I had to wait a long time for my order. The food arrived lukewarm and was not particularly flavorful, a disappointment. I expected better quality for the price.
