I was really surprised that I could like a 90-s kinda styled hotel. But I enjoyed it so much. Only the elevators are really slow and you could be waiting for 10-15 minutes there.
Overall is 8/10.
The room was really specious, the pool was nice, the view from the roof top was spectacular, also the breakfast area was well organised and fit a lot of people and still provide comfort and enough of choice of food for every guest. I left satisfied.

We were treated very courteously. We were even able to check out late at short notice without any extra charge. We would like to thank you for the free upgrade to the superior room.

I was looking for a hotel for the New Year holidays in Rio de Janeiro. For the price that you can only rent a dubious hostel for in Copacabana, I rented a room in a full-fledged excellent hotel Windsor with history and corresponding service
The location in the center (although there are also a number of interesting sights near the hotel) is easily compensated by using Uber (to the beaches of Copacabana, Ipanema - about 45 BRL, Jardim Botanico - 26 BRL, Barra da Tijuca - 60 BRL, from the airport GIG - 63, back - 44
That is, taxi prices in Rio are very affordable
Among the undoubted advantages, I will note a varied breakfast with a large number of hot dishes, fruits, natural juices, pastries. Breakfast is enough for the whole day
Among the minuses:
- non-working hair dryer, safe
- very noisy built-in ventilation (had to open the window at night)
- next to the hotel - a large number of homeless people, the smell of corrections (but this is not the fault of the hotel, of course), therefore the area nearby is not conducive to walking

The shower didn't get hot and the morning receptionists didn't look very friendly.
The room was ok.

If there is a 0 score, I will give it 0.
The old-fashioned hotel has poor infrastructure, and the card often expires and needs to go up and down the stairs to process. But the price is still high. The service awareness of the front desk staff is particularly poor. They completely ignore the long queue of people waiting for service, and they are there to sort out the papers for more than ten minutes.
In particular, there is a short-haired front desk gentleman with glasses, who is too lazy to work, so I give a bad review

Windsor Standard: impeccable service, excellent breakfast. Although the location is close to everything, it requires extra care as the area is dangerous.
Getting in and out by car, taxi or APP is easy, but walking in the surrounding area requires caution.

Good, but with construction noise before 8am on Saturday. Water takes a while to heat up

The floor in the room smelled bad. The decoration was in the nouveau riche style of the 1980s. When I took a shower, I found that the shampoo could not be squeezed out. . My hair dryer was broken, so I called the front desk to ask for a new one, but an engineer was sent to deliver a new one to me. However, the plug still couldn't be plugged in, so the old hair dryer had to be dismantled and reinstalled. Called the front desk again and found out the person who answered the phone didn't speak English. . . The refrigerator made a rumbling sound at night, so I unplugged the cord before stopping. The scariest thing is that this door has no peephole and no lock. People from outside must open it if they knock on the door. . The corridor is sensor-controlled. When you open the door, it becomes dark and scary. The window looks out onto the street, and if you're lucky you can hear homeless people going crazy at three o'clock in the evening. Why should it be awarded four stars if its standard is not as good as that of Hanting?

Good room, very clean and tidy. But very noisy, I think because it was close to the elevator it made a lot of noise all the time

The hotel is very pleasant and is located in a strategic location in the center of Rio de Janeiro.
