Moses, and host family are very welcoming. They are a wealth of local knowledge and very handy tips. Moses was able to take us on a sunset walk by the river to watch the Taj Mahal change colour , fabulous rooftop views from a friends terrace ,and the best restaurant food in Agra. We couldn't have asked for a better place to stay.

If, like me, you want to visit the Taj Mahal early in the morning, the location of the hostel is great. In the morning, everything is lit up, so you can walk to the Taj entrance without any problems. The hosts were very kind and helpful. In my opinion, this is a great hostel.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    The hostel is well located with a 5 minute walk to the Taj Mahal's East Gate and lots of restaurants nearby. I stayed in the 4 bed mixed dorm and found everything ok. Again, super friendly and helpful staff. Undoubtedly nothing can beat the views from the terrace. Best hostel in Agra.

    Joey's hostel is located right near the Taj Mahal, you can't get much closer & is very convenient for your visit. The view from the rooftop is really nice. Stay here if that is what you are looking for - great location & cheap prices!

    Stayed in the dormitory - It's cheap, compared to a few other hostels down the road. So if you're really looking to save ₹100 or ₹200, this is your place. However, my recommendation is to spend that extra amount and get a much much more comfortable stay. They do provide lockers with keys.

    Budget accommodation with a superb location. Just few meters from Taj Mahal gate. The room is nothing special, the window couldnt be open, many mosquitos and hot room. BUT - you are going for a cheap budget hostel so you should expect it. If you are looking for something cheap and close to Taj Mahal, it is good choice for you ;)
