    The views of the Taj Mahal from the rooftop are amazing, the staff was very nice and offered us a room before the check in time because we were very tired, the food from the café was amazing and the common areas were really good.

    Buffet breakfast was kinda poor.

    Very close to the Taj Mahal, 5 mins by walking: the location is the best part for sure. Surrounded by lots of shops and restaurants. Amazing view from the rooftop bar. Nice rooms, pretty clean.

    They have the laundry service and we were told that if we deliver the clothes in the evening we’ll get them around 4pm the next day as we were leaving. We asked 4 times did they remember and all we got was: okay, okay sir. Turned out they didn’t even know where the bags were and if they were ours. We came to collect and pay and turned out they didn’t even send it to be washed! Very disappointing as we really asked many times to make sure they would make it. The staff seemed to be indifferent to our requests.

    Location, terrace, the room, strong ac, mattresses, huge duvets. Haven! Breakfast was decent, the vibe is quite hippie, popular with tourists. The staff is rather nice and helpful. From the reception area you can go further and climb up to another terrace (Taj View cafe) and see the view, although the Hippie Cafe at Joey’s has a roof and fans so it’s more convenient;)

    -Power cut in the middle of the night for 2.5 hours in a very warm and humid condition and with no ventilation in the room. The hotel must have a plan B and a generator backup at least running the fan/ventilators, if not the AC. -Food was below average, they said pancakes however served Crêpe, also the Indian paratha was cold and not tasty. Omelette was ok. -People with knee problems may avoid, have lots of steep stairs, even inside the room going to the WC/Toilet. Was not a problem for us.

    -View of Taj from Rooftop and by foot only 4 minutes. -Room was good size, clean and European influenced

    No option to cancel or amend on booking.com. Says you will lose your money. We needed to amend so lost money, even though on the day they told us that we should have rung them. Which we did.

    Walking distance to the Taj Mahal. The roof top has a great vibe to go with the view. Friendly staff

    The dorm rooms are on the older end of things, basic as is expected with the price. Could do with a bit more thorough cleaning. AC was a bit temperamental.

    Quite simply this hostel is for visiting and enjoying the Taj Mahal. It’s proximity to the site is fabulous, enabling an easy early morning entry to beat the crowds. It’s roof top terrace view is spectacular and is a nice place to unwind and/or socialise. Rajiv was very kind to us.

    The AC is not working properly. If you are travelling in summer, get ready to be roasted here. The bunk beds in dorm are not comfortable enough.

    It's comparatively cleaner and placed in a nice location.

    No hot water in the bathroom, the boiler wasn't working. Everything is a little old inside the room and the rooftop is on a parallel building.

    The position Is awesome, you can reach East Gate of Taj Mahal in two minutes. The guys are friendly and the rooftop terrace in a great thing to make the breakfast or relax in the evening. Room was big and of course with air conditioning.

    No real common area apart from the terrace, but who cares, given how good the terrace is?

    Positioned perfectly to visit the Taj. Simple, clean room with all essentials, clean and a young and energetic staff. Terrace view really is like the picture. Unbeatable quality price ratio

    One of the rooms smelt of urine which may have just been the plumbing. It also didn’t have a window which may have been an issue for some people but we didn’t mind as it was just a place to sleep.

    This was the perfect place to stay in Agra, only a few minutes walk away from the Taj Mahal. The staff were very helpful and the vibe in the hostel was really nice. Rooms were basic but comfortable and good value for money. Food in the cafe was good and the view was to die for!

    The room is basic for the price you pay, but it's completely fine. The pillows were paper thin - should have asked for another one!

    The location is amazing - not just to the Taj but for eateries. There are always rickshaws outside which is great because they can take you to Agra Fort etc and importantly they know where to take you back to which is handy. The rooftop terrace with a view to the Taj is amazing. We got a walking tour in the evening too.

    Air conditioner was leaking some water in the room and the bathroom in the living room was missing the washbasin because they were doing maintenance so it was a bit inconvenient, but nothing to complain that much

    Location was perfect, view was really good, the vibes are what you look in a hostel, very nice staff.
