The remote staffing is a new wrinkle to me, but it worked fine. Rathmullen was a bit slow on Monday night, but that’s to be expected. Hotel was comfortable.

The room needs a fridge for patrons to store food/drinks etc. The room needs more than one set of towels per person for a stay. There was no milk or coffee in our room, and one toilet roll was not enough

Although I wouldn't call this a 'hotel' I did have a very nice stay here. There was no front desk help but check in was very easy as it was detailed nicely in the messages prior to arriving. The room was great and had a wonderful view out over the water. The restaurant was also great and very convenient.

Lovely newly renovated motel like standard because room size is a little tight but excellent views of the lake. Self check in and out went fine. Would definitely stay here again. The restaurant had a great dinner menu

There is no hotel staff to speak of, and the restaurant staff was mixed. But it is a fantastic property right on a beautiful lake.

A fridge in the room would be a welcome addition, and more comfortable pillows. Don't get me wrong, it's a nice place, well maintained, but no breakfast available unfortunately, and the nearest place only offers breakfast from 10am onwards. If you have an early start I suggest you make arrangements outside of the area.
