Communication and service could be better

Room housekeeping at check-in was arranged for every other day; if check-in is day1, then daily housekeeping would start on day2 while every-other day would bring housekeeping on day3 and day5 of the 6-day stay. However, by end of day3, no housekeeping had occurred. I brought this to the attention of the person at the front desk; apparently, that person counts days differently than I do. All in all, poor communication from the front desk. Breakfast buffet appears okay but certainly not at European standards....but trying to order a la carte, though on the menu, is trying. Oatmeal on day2 was excellent, whereas on day3 it was terrible: the restaurant host was rather unconvincing in her "apology" and offered me nothing as compensation.
