    Restaurant is a bit expensive. Situation is great but just next to the Taj Mahal which means you are approached by 5 Tuc tuc drivers as soon as you step outside of the place, same for shop owners, restaurant, change ...

    Great situation and view from the rooftop. Dorms are comfortable and clean. Bathroom is of top quality. Owner is very nice, rest of the staf is ok.

    Nothing

    Great hostel with amazing views of the Taj Mahal on the rooftop terrace. It is still a hostel so don’t expect swanky towel vibes, it’s quite plain, but still rather clean and the private room was spacious enough for us for the night with a private bathroom. Value for money when considering how much you’d pay for a hotel with a view.

    Staff were not that interactive when I was there, and unfortunately there was no tours or events when I was there only an evening sunset walk outside the Taj. Luckily I made a couple friends but some more tours or ways of getting people together would have been good.

    The location is fantastic, walking distance to the Taj and the rooftop was beautiful to be able to chill and look at the Taj Mahal and a beautiful view. The dorm was clean and had a lovely warm shower, with curtains around the beds. Rooftop was handy as was an opportunity for me to meet a couple of others. Breakfast was lovely.

    Room was a little warm and stuffy at night but not overly so. I slept well.

    The view of the Taj from the cafe rooftop was amazing. Still can't quite believe how good a view it is. I stayed in the 8 bed dorm and it was fine. Beds are a good size and the curtains did a good job of blocking out the light lockers were available to store my stuff. Staff are really nice and welcoming. We had a free sunset tour in the evening and they helped me sort a train ticket to my next destination for a minimal fee. The breakfast buffet was good value with pancakes, omlette, boiled eggs, toast, parata etc

    It’s a hostel so don’t expect 5* accommodation

    What Joey’s lacked in refinement it truly made up for in the stunning views of the Taj.

    Poor Internet, poor security on outside street door had no lock and I turfed out local kids several times. Food ok but would like a basic self prep area for food.

    Ideal location literally give minuted to Taj gate. Great staff . Comfy bed. Roof top view of Taj

    The view from the terrace of the hostel is its gem. The location is great, less than 5 min walking from the east gate of Taj Mahal. The room was decently clean and very quiet. Would definitely recommend the stay.

    The other common areas didn't seem that inviting, the breakfast was not that interesting and the room was a bit humid.

    The staff was very friendly and helpful, and the rooftop terrace and location are great. Nice place to stay if you're in Agra to see the Taj Mahal!

    First night there was an unpleasant smell in the dorm probably from the water in the bathroom.

    Comfy beds and duvet. Shower with hot water. Amazing roof top terrace overlooking the Taj Mahal. Location is right next to the South and East gate. Really nice and helpful staff..Complimentary Masala chai in the café.

    Dark and gloomy ground floor room. No linens for the blanket which raises all kinds of questions on how often they wash it. Everything somewhat run down.

    Just a few minutes walking to the Taj Mahal with a view from the rooftop cafe. The breakfast buffet was really great value and staff is friendly. The linens available were clean and so was the towel provided.

    However please note that during my stay there were renovations going on and on the 5th they had disconnected the bathroom water for like 45 mins and i was with soap when the water was disconnected for that total time.

    It was great experience staying at this location it was worth the stay.

    1) The Taj-view rooms do not have the clear view of the Taj Mahal due to Metal grill hence it is not value for money. 2) The rooftop restaurant was charging more than MRP (Marked retail price) for packaged goods such as cold drinks and bottled juice cans. 3) The rooftop restaurant was not operational hence people were ordering food from Zomato and other cloud kitchen

    Nice location. The Taj Mahal is at walking distance Rooftop view is amazing.
