What NHS and care staff say
★★★★★★★★★★
I had a really positive experience with Kensley Properties. Gary is a thoughtful and super helpful local landlord who truly takes care of his tenants. The room was bright, spacious, clean, and close to the hospital, which was perfect for me. I felt safe, the price was fair, and the weekly cleaners were a great bonus.
★★★★★
I've had such a good experience staying with Kensley Properties. The place is really nice, always clean, and well looked after, with fresh bedding and towels provided. Gary, my landlord, is super approachable and always easy to contact. I've had no issues at all and feel really well taken care of.
★★★★★
Rooms are spot on, very good price. Gary is a very good landlord, always looks after you.
