Liked: Great little hostel. Staff is good, restaurant is good and with decent prices (although there are better places to eat nearby like Zee cafe). Wifi was not working when I was there. Hot water in the shower. Room was pretty clean. Nice and close to the entrances of the Taj. Doesn't look like much from outside but inside it's a nice little escape and feels kinda cozy.
Disliked: Wifi not working so well.

Liked: Sai Palace as very close to the Taj Mahal and I really enjoyed the roof terrace and the amazing view of it. I arrived late so checked in and just sat on the roof terrace writing and listening to the chaos of Agra and meeting other travellers there. I was surprised when my room was as super quiet. The room was nice and pretty big for just me. Clean bathroom was good. Ask the staff about what you want to do before you do it and they can help you find the best price for things.
Disliked: The power kept cutting in and out. It was ok because there was a generator to run the fans in the rooms buy it was very loud outside.

Liked: Neat and clean. Very Near Taj, yet away from hustle and bustle. there is a nice roof top restaurant with some view. Hotel is nice and at this price - very good value
Disliked: Typical Indian system of "booking something and trying to allot something else" - which is extremely disgusting. I booked an AC room as described in Hostelbookers and they told me it is not so. They told me to go to their website and then I said, why should I , when i booked through hostelbookers. Luckily my smart phone was working and had to show them the hostel bookers site. I think if this is a rush period they would have forced me to stay in a non AC room. However I must say behaviour of the staff at the counter is very good. SO BE PREPARED TO FIGHT IT OUT WITH THEM. Even before booking I knew they had this problem.

Liked: (1) Really friendly staff; they all answered all our questions and pointed us in the right direction for shopping, drinks, etc. Even after checking out, they let us keep our luggage at the hotel (safe & locked up) after checking out.(2) Rooftop restaurant was cheap, convenient, and had GREAT views of the Taj and surrounding area. We spent hours and hours up there, taking in the scenery. Beware of the monkeys and flies though! I got my food stolen by a HUGE monkey...(3) Superior Suite was AWESOME. Clean, spacious, nice toilet &shower, and no bedbugs. Also, you can actually see the Taj from the room and toilet, although only partially.(4) Lots of nice public areas to lounge around and meet other travelers (including the restaurant)
Disliked: (1) They gave us the wrong room at first. We'd paid for the "Superior" Taj-view suite, but they instead gave us the Deluxe or something... but after we showed our Hostelbookers confirmation, they quickly moved us to the correct room(2) Should have a phone or at least the front desk telephone # in each room. We had to climb up/down 3 flights of stairs everytime we needed something from the front desk(3) Wifi sucked; don't come here expecting to use the internet for anything...(4) No free ride to/from metro station, as they'd advertisedBut the pro's definitely outweighed the cons, and we feel we got our money's worth. We'd definitely recommend to other budget travelers!
