This hand, I slowplayed flop having combo draw and Ace pair.

On turn I checked his stats and he looked like a limper, not a full stack, so I was putting him on AJ or AQ, maybe even trips, but not a full house. And I called.

Would you say right decision here?

I have moved your hand in to our hand discussion forum. There fits it better.
I don't see a reason to slow play this hand with top pair and the nut flush draw.
Especially against a weaker player I would Cbet at least half pot on the flop.
Not sure why you are calling the 3bet on flop, but most of the time I would shove here already or you expect you are always beat here and you need to hit the flush. if that's the case the turn should be a fold.

Cheers,

I think that cbet on this flop is better, because you are far forward vs opponents ranges and your purpose is to increase pot.
If you play check raise - play it harder, your goal on this flop to play on stack.
On this turn you are face to face with difficult decision and need to check opponent's stats. If he passive - fold and call if he aggressive player(>70 agression).
