I had a great experience staying at Snoozles, highlighted by its fantastic location just a short walk from Eyre Square and awesome staff who were very helpful. The fast Wi-Fi and vegetarian breakfast options were definite perks, too! However, I did find the mattresses quite uncomfortable; they were hard as rocks, which made it tough to get a good night's sleep. Overall, I highly recommend it for its accessibility and friendly vibe. 😊
