    My recent stay at Kensal Green Backpackers 2 was a pleasant surprise. The dorm rooms were spacious and provided a sound sleep. The location, although not in Central London, was actually a positive as it offered a quieter atmosphere. The staff were quick and willing to resolve any issues I had, such as fixing a lock on my room door and providing a more comfortable mattress. The price of £9 a night was a great value for the quality of stay. I would recommend this hostel for those looking for a comfortable and affordable option.

    The location of the hostel was perfect, right across from the underground station, making it super convenient to travel around. the price was also great, especially for someone on a budget like me. the rooms were comfortable and clean, and having a private shower and sink was a nice touch.

    Some of the staff members seemed a bit stressed and unfriendly, which was a bit off-putting. the breakfast options were very limited and not worth the money.

    The hot water in the shower was a pleasant surprise and the beds were quite comfortable. the cleaning staff were very kind and helpful.

    There were several aspects of my stay that I did not enjoy. the check-in process took way too long, even though I had already paid in advance.
