First of all, it’s false advertising, I could not snooze in snoozles. As you can imagine I picked this place hoping i could snooze and there was no such thing as snoozing because the beds were so uncomfortable I felt like Princess and the pea. The pillow was way too thin and flat. It also thought there was someone in our room at one point and felt so unsafe for the whole night. We could not leave any sooner. I really enjoy their Apple juice for breakfast though, I drank a full jug.

This has been a nice stay, the hostel is in a good location (right next to the bus coach station) and the staff was very friendly and accommodating. The facilities were clean and they offered free breakfast which was a huge plus for me. They also have ironing boards you can use which was a nice touch. The only thing I would change would be for the kitchen to be open for longer hours at night. Overall, it was a good experience and I would recommend it to anyone who wants to visit Galway.
