Don't stay here despite what your guidebook says. I haven't looked at the rough guide since staying here. Cheap rooms which offer basic backpacker accomodation. We didn't expect a room with no light. When we asked to move the manager took us to another room that still had mouldy crap in the toilet. I asked for my money back and... More

The dirtiest hotel I saw in my life. Literally, we found a big piece of crap on the floor of our room, and on the stairway. The manager didn't care. The brown toilet has NEVER been cleaned and you cannnot flush because it's broken. The sheets are disgusting. And, unbelievebly so, after coming to Delhi we realised that the waiter... More

I'm reading a lot of bad experiences and I do not deny them. In fact, while standing in the lobby, I heard someone walk in and ask the reception for new sheets because he found bedbugs in his bed. So going by that alone, you should probably avoid the place. BUT. . . we had a room with a view... More

While the rooftop view of the Taj is indeed great, and it's close to South and East gate, everything else about this hostel is horrible. Don't listen to the guidebooks that recommend this place -- I have no idea how they missed the crooked management who'll nickel and dime you for everything (including backtracking on what they'd previously promised), the...

While the staff were friendly and our room looked decent enough, the bed was infested. We woke the next day covered in bites.Please don't stay here. The staff know there are bed bugs, they just don't care. Not worth the risk.

As we were getting to Agra in the night, we decided to choose a guesthouse from Lonely Planet (often a bad decision anyway) and book a room by phone. We ended up in Shanti Lodge, and while the staff is friendly and the price was okay, the room was even dirtier than the Indian average. The bathroom has not been... More

only the view is nice,food is expensive and not good, after eating that i have started dyreah and stomach problem, service is very low, price is very high, please dont go there it's an advice, there are other place also for taj view

I walked into this hotel which was recommended in LONELY PLANET and decided to stay there because it was late and I was tired. My room was not in the main building but a separate building in the rear. To get there one had to walk through a dark alley, past 3 goats. A monkey jumped and shrieked on the... More

I wish I had read the reviews before staying here, after 4 months of budget guesthouses this is the worst (by a large margin). Please do not stay here. We paid 350rps (after much bargaining) and we even had to pay up front. The room was the usual squalid affair but bearable, what was not bearable was the foot long... More
