        Best is even not enough ”

        Some people recommended me Joey’s and I stayed for a few days. If I was already expecting something great, I had even better ! Super friendly staff, who helped me in absolutely everything, from beat places to go to ticket booking, answering all my questions and making my stay the best in Agra. I am a girl traveling alone and I felt fully secure at any time during my stay ! I had really great nights there meeting people, the food is fantastic and last but not least, the VIEW is breathtaking ! You will never see the Taj like that and feel like in a movie every-time you go on the rooftop. Best value for money, best view, best people, best place to stay ! You will see me again one day ;)

        A true gem!”

        For a backpacker's stay, I definitely recommend Joey's hostel. Although the location was difficult to find at firsr, it was very convenient having to walk only 2 minutes to Taj Mahal. The cleanliness, service and ammenities were all on point. The staff were very friendly and a living room/shared hall nestled at the middle of the hostel gave the travellers a place to chat and get to know other backpackers as well. We had a great time!

        Perfect place to stay for visiting Taj Mahal”

        Perfect place to stay for visiting Taj Mahal, Agra. Taj mahal eastern gate is 3mins walk from hotel. I stayed in private room room was not soo big but for 1 or 2 days it fine with a this price. The best thing of the hotel is roof top from there you get the beautiful view of Taj Mahal. It is recommended for all type travellers. Host are very friendly and helpful, they had arranged roof top Bhajiya and chai party with some music as it was raining. Cheers Joey's hostel team.

        天台可以望到泰姬陵,景色不错,离泰姬陵也很近,走过去7,8分钟就可以了很适合看日出。也有早餐。服务不错 you can use the rooftop of the hostel to admire Tajmahal that is so gorgeous! Furthermore, when you want to have sunrise on Tajmahal, it's just 10mins walking period to the ticket office of Tajmahal. And the staff at the hostel are so nice. It deserves to enjoy it.

        The place to stay in Agra”

        Views to the Taj Mahal while chilling in the rooftop, rooms are quiet although being in the downtown, staff are super helpful and very nice, you can get up to go to the Taj Mahal for the sunrise (just 5-10 minutes walk) and then come back to enjoy the complimentary breakfast... What else could you ask for? Certainly a place to come back next time

        Best hostel in Agra”

        I super enjoyed my stay at this Hostel . You will be enchanted when you go to the rooftop and see the view of the Taj. Just for that is worth staying there... I had a private room opening to roof top so from my window i could see the Taj. The staff is very nice, organized sunset view and street food tour on arrival, had alot of laughters and fun...Met great travellers. Stayed 6 nights, and was fantastic. Reliable staff . Food is ok . Close to Taj gate, and ticket boot,like 5 minutes walk, and all shopts and restaurants. I did not have to make long lines like every body says, of course security lines like any where in those kind of heritage sites. Not worth buying tickets on line...

        Really nice stay, 5 min from everything ( and for the most important one the Taj Mahal), the staff is so nice and helpful. And the view from the rooftop really nice and peaceful, away from the city noise.

        Awesome location with an awesome rooftop view of the taj! The staff are beyond friendly. ”

        Booked cos of the location n price. Turned out i got more than that.. The staff were amazingly friendly and they even advised us how to not get cheated.. And also the average price to pay for items. Roof has a view of the taj as well.. So if u intend to go early ~ 5am this is one of the best place to stay in. An auto ride from Cantt Station shouldn't cost more than 120rp. Love the place if u need a short stay and not vv fussy with accommodation.. A hostel is a hostel.. U make frens

        I highly recommend this hostel if you're visiting the Taj! It is only a 5 minute walk from the entrance gates which is very handy. Dorm rooms were spacious and clean, as was the bathroom. Staff were very friendly and social and also provided many good tips for Agra. Breakfast is included and will be ready available once you return from the Taj if you go for sunrise. Nothing bad to say about this place :)
