Guest Reviews
- Dave (8/5): -
- Wendy (10/5): A lovely quiet stay. - We had a lovely welcome from the owners. The location to Goderich was 5 minutes in the car.
The room was very clean and tidy with the added bonus of a kettle and teapot for my cup of tea in the morning. We had a lovely quiet night here. Thank you.
- Landriault (7/5): -
- Kim (10/5): - The Dunlop Motel is a very comfortable, quiet. Mike, the owner is very friendly.
We left a portable speaker there by accident and Mike called to say I had left it behind. He is going to hang on to the speaker until we go next time which there will be. Nothing
- Strum (8/5): the stay was very pleasant - It was quiet Numbers on motel units did not stand out against the colour of the door.

- Terry (9/5): will probably book again. - Left before breakfast no dislikes.
- Loretta (10/5): We certainly will be back. Thank you. - Really enjoyed sitting outside underneath the tree. Also liked the barbecue area with picnic tables. Exhaust fan in the bathroom should be cleaned in Room #4.

- Mary (8/5): Very good - The room was clean and functional. There was a fridge, microwave and kettle. When we booked we stated clearly that we had a dog with us. The reservation was confirmed. When we got there the owner said .. no dogs allowed. It was late when we arrived, we were exhausted .. and we had NO prior notice that we couldn't stay with our dog. In the end since it was just for the night .. he agreed to let us in so long as the dog stayed in her dog crate. That was nice of him .. since we had no other option at 9:30pm. The booking should not have been confirmed if no dogs were allowed.
- Devlin (7/5): Good -
- Ivana (9/5): Down to earth motel with everything one needs. Great value. - Simple country model with all the amenities one needs for a comfortable stay. The room was large, the beds super comfortable, and I appreciated the fact that it had a small fridge, a microwave and decent counter space in the kitchenette. The place was clean and the owners super nice. Would definitely return. Nothing.
- Brown (7/5): Good - the wifi connect was terrible very unstable. that was disappointing
- Paul (10/5): Best Place in Goderich - We love staying here. It is the best place in Goderich to stay. We have stayed at a lot of other places and they do not compare. The room is spacious, a kitchenette area, couch for sitting on,upgraded bathroom, extra chairs. The owners have gone above and beyond to make you comfortable. I am a little reluctant to give them such a raving review, because I really don't want them to get too busy, that they increase their prices and can't accommodate us in the future.

- Kelly (4/5): - The place has been cleaned well however the smell of mold is overpowering to the point I don’t know if I can’t tolerate it for even 1 night. My allergy to mold is causing me significant breathing issues here.

- Robert (10/5): - Great place for the price!
- Eva (8/5): - The location on hwy 21
- Aaron Van (6/5): - Long review. My late grandfather started bringing us here when I was a child (now 50) its been a tradition that whenever any of our family pass through Goderich we stay at the Dunlop. Was just in town for a funeral and cancelled my reservation at the Comfort Inn and decided to keep the tradition alive and stay at the Dunlop. The owner is great. The outside has been maintained well but the rooms are getting pretty rough. Duct tape on there floor covering gaps in the laminate, ceiling paint peeling, ect...but the bedding was clean. Its now a little expensive for the condition of the rooms. But still, It will remain my go to in Goderich. Tradition is tradition.

The room was clean and had the amenities I needed . Little fridge , microwave, kettle, coffee machine . I also liked : they gave me the first room (closer to office) being a woman traveling alone ,I appreciated that .
Good value for the cost . Nice well kept grounds . Maybe the little shelf in bathroom could be a little bigger and sturdier . Women have lots of cosmetics to put on there ! Lol
Very minor problem .

- Laura (6/5): Pleasant - Location Bit dated decor. A little cramped. Office chair and wing back chair made it awkward to sit at table for munchies and drinking.
- Robert (7/5): Good -
- Hugo (8/5): Very good -
- manish (2/5): - Absolutely disappointed with the services at Dunlop Motel. The rooms were stinking and as soon as we flushed the toilet it smelled like sewerage.
Ruined our New year night. The owner did not give us any refund. The entire family was sitting at the reception desk and staring at us while we were discussing. It was so unprofessional.
- Michael (9/5): Excellent - Clean room
- Dylan (10/5): - Staff helped make our stay perfect by accommodating our large vehicle and helping us get it plugged into an outlet in their garage. A
- Gerry (4/5): If you Value your privacy don't stay here. - Location was on highway 21 10 minutes from downtown Goderich The room was small and the owner of the hotel has a policy which I'm pretty sure is not legal, of coming into your room if he thinks you have gone out and turning off the lights or air conditioner and according to him checking to see if you have stolen any towels etc. which he claims is quite common. In addition he has placed a small note/sign below the air conditioner indicating the owners right to enter the room at any time to turn off any energy consuming devices as he sees fit. This is exactly what happened after I left and my wife, not feeling well stayed in the motel room when without even knocking he opened the door to his and my wife's shock. When my wife tried to talk to him about this not being ok, he basically deflected responsibility and made numerous excuses, none of which were satisfactory.
- Stephanie (10/5): Got the rest we needed and had what we needed! - The beds were great, room was clean, had what we needed! Small TV.
- Anissa (8/5): Good -
- ALLAN (8/5): - easy to get to
- Andy (10/5): - Staff were welcoming and the room was very good.
- Anonymous (5/5): Passable -
- Helen (6/5): - Not sure why the door to the office was locked when it says the motel is open. It would be nice to have coffee or tea in the office. The host is kind and respectful.
