ear plugs and wake the person up and ask him to sleep on his side, less
snoring, but a pillow our daypack at his side so turning is not posible

i'm just back home in san francisco bay area after a marvelous trip to
scotland and england where i stayed in four youth hostels over the
course of two weeks. i just love youth hosteling international...but i
have one question. is there nothing that can be done about hostelers
who have major...and i mean major...snoring problems. i went to bed
early one night at the st. pancras hostel in london and was woken up
by the bunk literally shaking due to the snoring of the man in the
bunk below. i tried to sleep through it but it was impossible! after
an hour or so of this i went to the reception desk and asked to be
moved but the attendant said there were no open beds and nothing that
could be done about the snorer! another roommate told me the next
morning (after i slept on the couch in the lounge!) that the snorer
told him of his problem when they first met. so? at that point you've
already paid for your bed. seems to me hostel reception could post a
polite sign at the desk asking snorers to identify themselves as such
so they could be bunked in the same room. i had this same problem at
the youth hostel in santa cruz, california, earlier this year. the
snoring was so loud from another roommate that i actually left the
hostel at 12:30am and went and got a very expensive motel room. any
other suggestions?
