The hostel is very well located, just few minutes by walking from the Taj Mahal and the view from the terrace is stunning. If you get the train station pick up be aware that the driver will try to arrange a tour for you. We felt harassed because he was insisting so much but at the end he give up. So if you don\'t want the tour you must be firm!

The hostel is very close to the Taj Mahal. With a brilliant view from the rooftop, even if it is not the best roof top, cause no food served during the day. Be aware of the monkeys on top. Staff is ok. Cleanliness is ok.

Brilliant location with superb views of the Taj Mahal. Pleasant friendly staff. The food was tasty and reasonably priced. The room wasn't the cleanest but it was ok. Generally I would recommend this hotel to short stay travlleres that want brilliant views of the Taj.

The location is great, right near the South entrance of the Taj Mahal and lets face it, thats why people come to Agra. The hotel was fine in terms of cleanliness and security but it was pricey for the quality. Anywhere else and you'd expect to pay about half. The roof top restaurant has a great view but we chose only to take drinks up there as the monkey's are a bit intimidating! If you have a good 'touch my food, feel my folk' mentality you'll be fine!

The first room they placed us in had no ac and no hot water, but they eventually placed us in a better room with such facilities. The water quality, however, was terrible. I tried washing my hair in it, and my hair was literally stiff afterward. There must have been hard minerals in it. It also seemed like they were unprepared for our stay. We had to ask for sheets, towels, and toilet paper.

The hotel is so close to the Taj Mahal it's outrageous. I also had a room away from the street so I was able to get a really good sleep. The shower was ok but not great, the room was clean and quiet and the food at the restaurant was very clean and tasty.

Location, location, location, this is the best of this place, steps from Taj Mahal, good rooms, average cleaning, good food at restaurant. Value for money. Carefull with the drivers that work there, do not go shopping during tours for marble, paintings, jewelery, all is overpriced and low quality. Also in tour to Fatehpur Sikri go by bus,you do not need a guide, it is cheating. I think it is not the hotel responsability but just take the advice.

The hostel is very close to Taj Mahal, so its a good place to stay. The room was clean, they also have a nice cafe. I don´t know if the rooftop terrasse still exists. We didn´t see it.

Amazing rooftop restaurant, with lovely view of the Taj Mahal. Room was clean and had hot water; staff were helpful; only a short walk from the Taj Mahal. Would recommend it.

Good place, but noisy. Don\'t get a pick up from the station. Our driver put on the hard sell for a whole day tour. He got unpleasant when we told him we weren\'t interested. Get there independently.

The youngman at reception desk cheated me in the end. I paid when I arrived because I had no small note, but he said I did not paid at the time I check out. Even finally, I have prooved, I paid, but i still feel bad with this place.

Incredible view of the Taj Mahal from the rooftop, superb value for money, cannot believe how close it is to the main entrance of the Taj Mahal (couple of hundred meters if that!!!) My girlfriend was bed-ridden with flu for a whole day and the staff were amazing - helping us with medicines, bringing her water, and generally all-round amazing!!!!
