How did you father come to the conclusion that snakes smell? The only time it smells a little is when the do their business, and you generally clean it straight away.

Are you allowed to keep them in your bedroom? Just close the door so then he doesn't have to deal with it?. I have both of my snakes in my room, and they've never made a stink yet :S.

Snakes dont smell thats crazy, I couldn't imagine the fumes bothering them, unless the garage doors were shut while t5he cars were running , this would not only be bad for the snakes but their owners as well.

I have a dedicated area / room for all my snakes which is attached to the back of the
house due to that very reason.
Cheers.
