We met a guy there called Mark who was like Mr India and was in Delhi for the third time (staying 6 months last time). He gave us some really good tips on where to stay and what to do and he also spoke pretty fluent …

Wuhuuu!!!

Im playing catch up a bit on the old travel blogs as we're now in Jaipur, three stops away from Agra but im gonna give Agra its own little write up because it was a mixed bag and deserves the attention!

    They had great food and great service. It was a little slow to get our food, but it was so worth it because of the view of the Taj Mahal. The price did not matter because we were able to watch the sunset on the Taj. Just spectacular.

    sheets had a few stains, bathroom was kind of a joke. no sink, no hot water, weird old squatty potty half-covered up with some boards, door didn't close all the way and only locked from the outside.

    Clean room with sat TV and hot water. Hotel gave us an extra sheet and 2 towels for free. Friendly service. We stayed in a room in the new section of the hotel for 500 R a night. Only thing is it can be a noisy at times with people talking in the hallways or staff movings things around in the hallway. Rooftop has amazing view of the Taj. We were happy here.
