Hotel Ratan Palace

I booked this hotel because it was close to Agra Cantt, and I had to catch a train from Agra Cantt the next morning. I booked a "Deluxe Room" with a free breakfast, but the room I was given was a very spartan, basic room with no attached bath and nothing else apart from a double bed. The bed had clean bedding though. Look at the photo and see if you can call it a "Deluxe Room." There was a smelly detached bath with a dirty squat toilet, no mirror, and no geyser. The owner did provide hot water in a bucket when requested. The door and windows had gaps and I could hear noise on the street until late at night. There was no free breakfast, even though it was advertised. The owner is a nice person though and said that you can't get free breakfast for this price (which is probably true, but don't advertise it as free breakfast), and (no they don't offer free breakfast and don't describe a basic room as a deluxe room). Lastly, a "friendly" neighbor showed up unannounced, tried to befriend me by offering to give me a "free" ride to Agra Cantt the next morning, and inviting me to his house (perhaps to scam me of some money). Why would the hotel owner allows others to show up and bother guests. Very weird. Lastly, it seemed that I was charged for this hotel multiple times I'm trying to sort that out. Be careful; you get what you pay for.

*no attach toilet *mosquitoes won't let u sleep *can't sleep on the bed because making too much noise *for bath need to give rs 25 extra *zero staff only owner is there *electrical wiring all open *smelly mattress and quilt*location in slum *no soap *drinking water has to fill up urself from the owner's house *owner will not pick up the call to give u location or help u to reach there, no one knows this hotel by name until u reach that slum * no TV * worst experience ever * room shape is something very different. resemble trapezium * This is some house converted to hotel somehow by jugaad * dharmshalas are much luxurious than this.

This is a lodging only. No fooding or breakfast available. The owner is the best person I've ever met. Uncle and aunty were as if a relative to us. It can be said a second home or a relative's house. Best experience.
