Acceptable Stay. Breakfast Service Needs Improvement

slow breakfast poor service
The location is central, not directly on the street, so it was reasonably quiet.
The breakfast service was quite slow. It took an unreasonable amount of time to receive coffee and then the main course. The staff seemed more focused on socializing than serving the guests, frustrating.

Acceptable, but Some Issues

slow breakfast service high prices
I experienced a very slow breakfast service. It took ages to get coffee. The staff seemed more interested in chatting than serving guests. The limited wine selection at the bar and the high prices also bothered me.
