Vila Gale Angra - All Inclusive
Lovely location and facilities. Everywhere was very clean. However, rooms were tired and outdated needed refurbishment especially the bathroom.

Hotel Nacional Inn Angra dos Reis
The restaurant was awful. They had no idea what to do. I ordered room service and it took a long time. On the top of it the steak was burnt. Not just overcooked but burnt. The worst experience I've had with room service by far.

La habitación no la limpiaban. Hubo alerta de derrumbe y me fui 3 días antes. Jamás me reembolsaron nada, ni siquiera lo preguntaron.
