worse experience, Hotel booked through Expedia
First of all you are misleading about the hotel quality. The Hotel condition is horrible. Ice comes out of the Air conditioner. Not a single piece of furniture available in the room except the bed; no wardrobe, No chair. Even they are not providing drinking water in the room. R.O water is given after several reminder. Hotel stuffs are useless. They don't know how to talk to the guest.
I had the worse experience staying in this hotel. I am curious how the Expedia is recommending this hotel. Totally cheating.
I advise all not to book this hotel at any cost. I also request Expedia to visit the hotel to check the minimum facilities available with the hotel before shortlisting it on the website.

Fine place to stay
Room we stayed in looked nice and fresh. However, there were some stains on the quilt cover. But we called the housekeeping staff and they changed it quickly. The receptionist seemed very happy to help us, spoke very politely and was friendly. Other than that, the location was good, close to the Taj Mahal.

Ideal for sightseeing
Totally happy with the location of hotel being just a stone's throw away from the Taj mahal, and a short walk from Agra Fort. Service was excellent and the staff was helpful. The size of the room was good, very good free wifi available everywhere in the hotel.

Clean room with a modern look and not too small. Convenient location to all sites. The food was good, not too large of a selection but adequate. Helpful staff. Luggage storage available. I will stay again in this hotel.

Fair facilities, knowledgeable staff
Basic breakfast and the water pressure in the shower was a bit low, but acceptable. The location is great right in the heart of the city, and close to all sites. Extremely professional and knowledgeable staff in the reception area. Thanks for all the advice and help.
