Based on other reviews I had low expectations but, considering the low price and excellent location, I thought it was pretty good. The place is about 15 years overdue for a refurb, with everything a bit shabby and worn, hence the budget price. However the location, looking across the river from a balcony, was great. It was an excellent base for my few days of exploring the history and landscapes of the Hawkesbury.
One more thing: Windsor is full of little plaques attached to items and places of historical interest. I suggest the air conditioner in my room be recommended for a Heritage listing, as a good example of an ancient technology. Fortunately the weather was lovely and I was able to leave the door to my private balcony open all night.
