    The hotel surrounding is not nice and not very clean. The room was on third floor with many !! Steps. The room was ok, in the shower the water current from above was very weak. No pick-up services were offered from and to the train stations.

    Exceptional location, just outside Taj Mahal. Very friendly and assisting staff. Good breakfast from the porch with a charming Taj view. Reasonable price. great atmosphere, specially for young travellers.

    I would recommend this place to anyone who wants to stay near the Taj Mahal. The rooms are clean and well-maintained, and the staff are very helpful and welcoming. They greet you warmly and assist with any problems you may have. A great stay overall!

    1) i saw the review said that the staffs are very helpful, so i thought to consult about tuktuk rate in agra, in reality, all locals told me tuktuk cost 50, but staff told me 150....this really make me felt ...... 2) when i check in, money exchange rate is 86, after i settle down and went back to reception, the rate become 85. 3) booking.com say late checkout can be 12noon. But reception told me 11:30. Nothing is really big deal, but all together just felt not as perfect as it should be.

    We booked a Taj view room, which did indeed overlook the Taj Mahal, but also straight onto the rooftop dining area so we had to have the curtains closed when we were in there.

    Excellent location. Staff friendly and the place was clean. Rooftop dining area was a great place to hang out and watch the sunset after a days sightseeing.

    My ONLY negative is that the chicken wasn’t cooked properly (was very pink) in the burger. My partner and I had a burger and our friend who we met that day had chicken nuggets on the same night - this is the only thing we ate in common and 3 of us had severe food poisoning that lasted days. As a westerner deffo stay away from meat here, it almost ruined our holiday.

    The location was amazing! We walked to the Taj for sunrise in about 5 minutes it was really easy to access. The social areas are so nice and chill, it is a little slice of heaven. We met some friends there while overlooking the Taj Mahal on the first night! The room was good value for money, we booked the Taj view room and it was 100% worth it.

    Unfortunately during our stay both the power and water cut out but this was not necessarily in the control of the hostel.

    Great staff and rooftop bar was convenient for food. A staff member Rajiib took me and my friends out for my birthday and we had an amazing time.

    No elevator might be the only inconvenience here but it is tolerable since it is only for short stay.

    The hostel is really close to the Taj Mahal. It is only like a 7 minutes relax walk. The room is clean and comfortable. The location also near convenience stores so easy to buy things. It is also easy to reach the hostel.

    There was a smell in the toilet even after cleaning not sure why.

    It was extremely close to the West gate of Taj Mahal around 150 metres. From the rooftop cafe you can view the Taj Mahal and it was stunning!

    Location is near taj mahal which is exceptionally great but the nearby locality and especially the autowalas in that region are not good.

    Awesome stay, very friendly people, they have quadruple rooms which are superb and rare to find.

    The blanket was a big heavy one which is very unlikely to be washed every time. The bathroom was also quite smelly 24/7. No towels were provided either.

    I stayed in the private loft room. It was quite nice and modern, good price and very close to the Taj Mahal - just a 4 minute walk.

    The rooftop restaurant had amazing view of Taj Mahal, but the service was quite slow when it comes to orders, even though the food was decent.

    The hostel is right next to Taj Mahal, making it a perfect place for starting your early morning visit. It felt safe and the room was quite nice.

    The breakfast did not meet expectations and was not good value for money. Additionally, the surrounding area was quite dirty. To access the restaurant, guests need to walk between separate buildings, which can be inconvenient.

    The property is very conveniently located, just 200 meters from the Taj Mahal. The building is newly constructed, clean, and thoughtfully designed with modern appeal.
