“Comfortable and Friendly”

Reviewed 13 June 2013 NEW

I stayed at Snoozles for four nights while exploring the Galway area, and it was always a nice place to return to after a long day. The staff were very friendly and helpful, giving us information on what to do and answering all our questions. The large hallways make it seem more like a hotel than a hostel, and the... More

“Excellent location but a loud night...”

Reviewed 27 May 2013

This hostel is literally right next door to the bus station, which is perfect for travelers coming from Dublin by bus. It's also very walkable from the city center. The reception staff was very helpful and friendly and showed us to our room (private w/dbl bed & en-suite bathroom). The room was clean and was well worth the price. All... More

After staying in a gross hostel in Dublin, I had started to decide I was getting too old for the hostel experience.

“Clean and Comfy”

Reviewed 12 April 2013

Snoozles is a great hostel, it reminds me more of a hotel with the reception desk and key card to get in your room. I stayed in a 4 bed dorm. The room was clean and the bed comfortable. Housekeeping even came in during the day to clean. The front desk staff are very friendly and helpful too. Another thing... More

“Excellent stay!”

Reviewed 11 April 2013

This hostel was amazing! It was clean, quiet, secure in an ideal location. The staff were very friendly and helpful and very easy to approach. Parking was a bit awkward, the Qpark in the bus station next door was not ideal but did offer a parking rebate. The bathroom of our room could have been laid out better (the shower... More

Dear JustGoingToSouth, Thank you for your positive review and for giving us a 5/5 rating! I’m sorry you found the car park next door to be a little awkward but we feel €5 for 24 hours is better than full price on street parking!
