    One of the biggest "Deluxe" rooms with occupany of 4 adults had very bad odor and it stink bad like unkept toilet. Tried using exhaust fan but even after running it all night to and using a room fan, it was difficult to survive the night. I asked for another room but apparently all were occupied. The bathroom in the room also had water seepage which was probably caused the issue I hope the management takes my feedback seriously and corrects the issue or take the room off the site. Not suitable for any guests

    The size of the rooms, the breakfast and the proximity to the Taj

    At 7 am each morning loud music from the gym below starts and drowns out everything in the homestay for around 2 hours. There is no mention of this by the owners in the property description. As for the surrounding area, and I know this is outside the owners control, it's squaid. Work on the new Agra metro has turned the area into a huge building site. When it rained during our visit there was mud everywhere. There is no warning of the construction works

    The room was clean and had free access to the kitchen area

    Firstly, the room was very cold. Although we were provided with a very small heater, it wasn’t enough to keep the room heated, you’d have had to keep it on non-stop which wasn’t safe. Secondly, the bedsheets were definetely not changed before, only ironed to make them seem clean, which they were not. Bathroom shower was really rusty and the bathroom itself was outdated. Moreover, we asked for a taxi to be booked for us as we were leaving early in the morning for the train station and the owner charged us 500 rupees for the trip, which normally costs around 100 rupees. When we argued that it’s a rip off, he said that this is the price of the taxi company and he has nothing to do with it, although later on, when we paid for the accomodation, he also included the 500 rupees in the total price.

    The garden is the only thing that we liked about this accomodation. Breakfast was also decent.

They said we could arrive any time On arrival they told us they did not have a room for us so not impressed 0 out of 100

    No elevator so it's not accessible. But the staff carry bags up and down

    I have a high standard of cleanliness that most Indian hotels do not provide. But this place was incredibly clean. The room and common space was very nice with very pretty decorations.. They provided a nice homemade breakfast of aloo Paratha and poha and toast. Because it was a more communal way of staying in a new place we got to chat and meet new people.

    The only advice I would have for Hideout Agra is to make it clear that the downstairs building site is not the homestay! There was no noise from this but when you walk in for the first time it is in front of you and could be hidden by a cloth or tarpaulin to avoid any confusion.

    We loved the hospitality of Dr. Rituraj Pathak. He is very welcoming, speaks very good English and gives helpful tips about how to navigate Agra (which could be a bit daunting for Europeans). In particular we loved the breakfast and dinner at Hideout Agra, but our favourite thing was the life-changing Indian spiced tea made by Lokendra. We will definitely try to recreate this at home! The staff were very lovely, including others we did not get the names of. Thank you also to Rajesh for the great tour of the Taj Mahal. The rooms are basic but very comfortable. There is hot water in the shower.

    It was raining a lot and so we couldn’t enjoy the nice terrace. But of course that’s not the homestays fault ;)

    We had a really great stay at Hideout. The room was beautiful, everything was really clean, the staff was really friendly, breakfast was plenty and the owner took a lot of time for us. He gave us some good and helpful tips for the city and sightseeing. When our taxi to the train station was late, he helped us a lot so that we didn’t miss the train. The walk to Taj Mahal took 20 minutes so it’s a good place to stay if you want to be there early in the morning.
