Is a good, nice and neat place. They have food service and the owner is very helpful. Staff only speak little english, but they understood us.

Cost of station pick up ( had to phone - train late and no one waiting) seems not included in price - on asking , was told the host would pay - later discovered driver hadn't been paid was told ' as you like'- ended up paying because I felt petty. Definitely not 15 mins walk from Taj Mahal- at least 30 mins, but traffic too bad to try. Had early morning train to catch - told early breakfast ' not possible' , nor could something be made the night before. Not hospitable; stingy host

Absolutely our worst stay in India. Angry and mean host who shouted and swore and us in the street, bed bugs in a substandard room, cold showers, terrible breakfast, and relatively expensive. Avoid at all costs!!!

Absolutely beautiful guesthouse .... rooms of better quality than you find at almost any hotel in India so value for money is outstanding. Staff are extremely friendly and helpful. Food onsite is delicious. Only downside is that it is about 2-3km from main tourist area so always need a tuk-tuk in and out but worth the small inconvenience. Owner extremely nice man with Western style service standards. Would definitely recommend!!

The room was ok but quite cold (one blanket isn't enough in February). The boss was nice and helpful but it wasn't the case of his employee. We cannot officially prove the link but we took our ONLY meal of the day at this hotel and we both got really sick (severe traveller's diarrhoea) for more than 10 days just after that (only antibiotics could finally cure us).

Mr. Raj, the owner, was absolutely incredible. Our train was delayed six hours and getting into Agra at 2 AM was something of a nightmare, but he was awake and ready for us and had this amazing room and hot showers waiting for us when we stumbled in. The food was excellent, they provided great advice for getting around Agra, and the facilities were amazing. I'd definitely recommend this place for anyone looking for a clean and friendly place in Agra.

This has to be best place on hostel world to stay in at agra, pick up from train station was great. The rooms are brand new and as clean as poosible and the food is great and cheap. the owners are there to help you and give bus, train or any other information you may need. The best place i've stayed in my 6 month trip.

Everything was perfect here. The accommodations were clean, the owners were incredible, the food was delicious, and it was an exceptional value. The location is convenient to Taj Mahal. I'd recommend this place to anyone, and if you stay here, be sure to have dinner here, as well. Simi's cooking was a highlight of our stay.

We stayed here for two nights and its was our best stay in India. Small family run BnB that just opened. The rooms are newly renovated and are spacious, clean and nicely decorated. The couple were very accommodating and honest which was nice in an otherwise hectic country. They gave us tips on what to do in Agra and what to pay. The wife is an excellent chef and prepared traditional indian dishes that were the best food we had in India, by far. If you go to Agra, stay here!
