lukewarm bath
Mildly heated tub
A lukewarm bath is bathwater at a temperature between warm and cool—tepid rather than hot or cold.
The temperature is comfortable but not stimulating, often recommended for medical purposes or for bathing infants.
Figuratively, lukewarm bath can describe any experience that fails to excite: The reception was a lukewarm bath—polite but unenthusiastic.
