Great if you have an early morning train from AGC, otherwise...
Not the greatest place in the world... rooms were clean aside from the quantity of dead mosquitos in the bathroom. Proximity to the road makes it a bit noisy. Very convenient for us who had a 6am train from Agra Cantt station, but otherwise is pretty far from the main Agra attractions. And still >$60/night! For $70/night we stayed the first night in Agra right near the East gate at a trendy new hotel with a great rooftop view. The restaurant leaves quite some to be desired as well. Food is actually very good (Tandoori here produced our 1st healthy butter/oil free meal in India), but prices here are 30-40% higher than other hotels/restaurants. As a reference, water sells for 60rps here vs. 20 at other joints. Nevertheless, good if you have an early morning train (not may tuk-tuks at that hour) since can walk to AGC in 10mins.

Money-saving tip:
Not Applicable
when riding the trains, be careful of the luggage porters who will aggressively carry your goods whether you ask to or not. The signs clearly say 40rps fee for >40kg luggage, but one guy insisted on 400rps! It was when I asked Mr. Tourist Policeman nearby if I was correct about the 40rps sign that he quickly dispersed.
