We stayed in this hostel on 2 occasions, once in late Dec '11 and once in mid November '11. On both occasions I found the hostel to be ideal for a cheap quick getaway with friends. The place is brand new and very clean and there is an excellent kitchen for dining, there is also a great recreation room for... More

My partner and I were stopping for one night in Galway and needed a good night's sleep to carry on the following day. The reviews of Snoozles looked good as it promotes good sleep and with it being so close to the city centre and all rooms having ensuite bathrooms, we thought 'why not?'. Pros... - very close to the... More

Read all the reviews for the top hostels in Galway and decided to go for Snoozles, and i'm glad I made that choice. 2 nights spent there. Literally 3 seconds walk to the Coach station (which takes you straight to Dublin city or day tours), Subway sandwiches are 2 mins walk away & so are convenient stores, the busy shopping... More

I've stayed at Snoozles Hostel, Galway on a number of occasions... I often ask if they have a private (single/ double) room rather than a dorm... and if they have one available, I usually get it for 1 or 2 nights at a very reasonable price (subject to "off-peak" time of the year and more likely during the week rather...

Snoozles was the 1st hostel I've ever stayed in, and it wasn't a place I'd be keen to visit again. Snoozles' staff were rude and intolerent of our not overly boisterous stag party. It was the only black mark on an otherwise great weekend in Galway.

I stayed in this hostel for 2 nights with friends. The rooms were clean. The shower curtains were too short for the shower so the bathroom turned into a lake! The staff were very friendly on the phone but once we arrived they were not very nice and not accommodating what so ever. We wanted to have a couple of... More

We stayed just for one night. The only problem was that the shower didn't get so hot. The staff was nice and the room was clean. Good location.

We were looking for a triple room when I was looking for accommodations in Galway. I was having a hard time finding anything reasonable as this was also the Galway Oyster Festival week. I talked to my friends and we decided to give it a try. Then one of my friends became sick and we were down to to two.... More
