Stayed for 1 night at this place in Agra. The host family was really friendly. They will go out of their way to make sure that our stay is comfortable. They also made nice masala tea. Our room was nice and clean. Definitely recommend everyone to stay here in Agra.

Excellent Place

Our stay delivered beyond our expectations. Our hosts were gracious, available, and attuned to American needs.  This beautiful three-story building successfully merged safety, convenience, and aesthetics. As one small example of many, balconies had ornate metal allowing the beautiful view of the calm driveway below, and provided a safe place for our children to play. Our hosts were attentive, greeting us as we departed and arrived from excursions, served a healthy home-cooked breakfast each day (still smiling warmly as we all arrived at different times), and provided inside tips for day trips. They easily looked after special requests made by the mother of the youngest child in our group. The fridge was stocked with bottled water provided for our convenience at mere market price. It was quiet, yet near tourist attractions (a horse and carriage brought us back from Taj Mahal). My only regret here is that I didn't get to spend more time on the balcony reading a book.  Since this is a government-licensed stay, know that foreigners will be asked to provide passport information upon arrival.

Clean, safe, comfortable with kind hosts

Asif is a gentle and soft talking intelligent person to converse with over a breakfast. He is super attentive, caring about guests so much. We stayed on 1st fl (2nd fl for US) and every time we came downstairs to ask for something or to get drinking water, he walks out from his room with a big smile and welcomes us. He listened to our plan for each day and added suggestions and comments to ensure a good visit. He talked to OLA cab or tuk tuk drivers every time we booked to make sure they can arrive on time. He even lent small bills to pay a tuk tuk when we returned from sightseeing. After he found out our schedule on checkout day, he offered a late checkout even without asking. The Indian breakfast served here was tasty as well as the continental breakfast. The place is 30 minute walk, south from Taj Mahal and it was quite pleasant to walk to Taj Mahal around sunrise - not much traffic and cooler weather. Asif’s Taj Mahal Home Stay is an oasis in chaotic Indian travel scene. What a gem!

Oasis in Chaotic Indian Travel Scene

We are currently staying at the Taj Mahal Homestay and couldn’t be happier.  Traveling with 2 boys age 7 and 9, safety is our main priority.  The house is in a nice, quiet and safe area, with easy access to some small shops and facilities. 
Asif and his father are fantastic welcoming hosts and are happy to help with planning and guiding too.  Breakfast is included and varies each day.  We have been here 3 days and have eaten in house twice.  Both times the food has been really nice and not too spicy for us either!  We have ventured out on our own and Asif’s father has been invaluable in advising on getting “Indian” pricing as opposed to tourist rates! Overall a fantastic experience with clean and modern accommodation and A1 support from the entire family. 

Fantastic homestay!

We were a family of 6 and stayed at Asif's place from 25th December 2017 to 27th December 2017. Communication with Asif was easy and replies were prompt. As we were a group of 6, Asif gave us a whole floor to ourselves (which had 2 separate rooms with double beds and a common area, which Asif placed 2 single beds for us) which we could lock. There was no kitchen on our floor but an electric kettle was provided. 
It was a great stay from the word go. Check in was straightforward and the best surprise was that we were welcomed with great tasting Masala Tea and cookies. That was totally unexpected and such a great surprise. The rooms were clean and the 2 double bed rooms had TV. The wifi was working well. Toiletries were provided and the hot water shower worked well. The place is walking distance to some restaurants and souvenier shops. I can't comment on public transportation to the sights because we had a car and driver with us for our trip. By the way, Asif's father is also a tour guide so you may wish to consider his services but we didn't as our transport had already arranged a guide for us. 
What we all unanimously agreed that we liked the most :- 
(1) the welcome Masala Tea and cookies. All of us think that Asif serves one of the best Masala Tea (if not the best) that we had in our 11 days trip; 
(2) Asif and his family members were really friendly and accommodating; 
(3) Asif's sister is a fantastic cook. We had Asif fix dinner for us for one night and the food was excellent. I am from Malaysia and I think it is one of the best curry chicken that I have tasted. There was also so much food that we couldn't finish what was provided; 
(4) breakfast of toast, omelette, butter and jam that was provided free tasted great; and 
(5) comfortable beds for a good night's sleep. 
If I was to be picky and to make a comment about anything, I would say that since we travelled during winter in India, it would have been great if there was heating. But then I am from Malaysia which is hot the whole year, so it is just a personal view. Notwithstanding, I think Asif, his family members and his place is just great. It was a great stay and we wouldn't hesitate to recommend Asif and his place to others.
