snorers
Loud sleeping people
Snorers are people who snore—who breathe noisily through the mouth or nose during sleep.
The term often carries mild complaint or humor, since snoring affects bed partners and roommates: My husband is one of the worst snorers I've ever heard.
Snorers were banished to the back of the cabin on the camping trip.
