poor air conditioningoverpriced breakfast

the air conditioning was barely functional in the room, a significant issue during warmer days (i expect more from a hotel of this class). i reported it to the reception, but they were unable to resolve the problem . also, the breakfast buffet, though extensive, felt overpriced at 20 euros, considering there are many cafes nearby that offer better value.
