It's like putting lipstick on a pig. My room was terrible nasty!!! Hair in the sink, greasy floors with nasty spots around the bed, the bedding was NOT inviting due to spots on the pillows, microwave was definitely not clean, as well as the ice bucket having food and grease marks all over it. Not to mention that we could not get into our bathroom upon arrival due to the door knob hanging off while the door was shut. It was not fixed just forced open and was told to not shut the door during our stay. Really?
The sad part was it seemed to be okay and normal business operations. We only needed one night and had no where else to stay. Luckily there is a Walmart nextdoor so we were able to survive through the night with cleaning products and bedding. Overall, I would NOT recommend. Looks good on the outside but very nasty on the inside.

At that point, we checked out The manager told us that we would get our refund for the second night since we refused the smell of Marijuana and couldn't get our king bed. He said that he would refund expedia, who would reimburse us. As you see, we drove to LA Quinta the same day.

Nice facility, nobody wearing masks

I was evacuating the hurricane area so I made a snap decision to go to Selma and stay at this hotel. Although I arrived at 11 pm Saturday night, it was not a problem for them. The hotel was very quiet and clean. My room was large and had a microwave, coffee maker and fridge, which were very convenient and helped me save money on my unplanned trip. I did not take advantage of the free breakfast because although there were signs saying everyone must wear masks inside due to the pandemic, nobody did, including the employees. This was my biggest concern since Alabama has the lowest vaccination rate in the country. In fact, I left the hotel for this reason although I still can’t go home. Also note that this hotel is two floors and there is no elevator. Normally this would not be a problem for me, but since I had to leave with several suitcases and my computer for fear everything would be lost in the storm, I had a very difficult time lugging all my stuff across the parking lot and up the stairs.

beware!

Came to Selma because my husband had an unexpected death in his family. Stayed at a different hotel, tried to extend for one night there but they were full. Hotels are limited in Selma so we had to settle for this comfort Inn. Check in was cool. The young lady at the desk was nice. There is no elevator, it’s noisy, upon walking into the room it smelled horrible. Much like cigarettes and pee! I wanted to sit in the chair but there were stains and it looks nasty! There were crumbs on the desk and when I wiped around the sink with my Lysol wipes pubic hairs fell into the sink. I couldn’t help but to think, truck stop/pornhub hotel. Glad we only needed one night. And we will be back at our regular hotel going forward and prayerfully never staying at this one again! I’ve also heard rumors of people breaking into others peoples rooms, weed smoking and other illegal activity at this hotel.

nice place

This motel has friendly and helpful staff. I had to call to find it, though, as the GPS took us to a wrong place, and we were told that, for some reason, that happens a lot. Perhaps it has to do with the address that is confusing! Never mind, the motel had good amenities, comfy bed, fluffy pillows, and I loved the accessible, walk in shower with all the grab bars, as I have an invisible handicap and hanging on is high on my priority list! The breakfast spot was small but the breakfast was good, and you can take your food back to your room if need be. Loved so many TV channels to choose from for good entertainment after a day of sight seeing! It was quiet and a feeling of security!

Very disappointed! We arrived late, 1:30 am, as we traveled 8 1/2 hours drom North Carolins. When we arrived the lobby was locked and nobody at the night window! Wrang the bell 3 times, in a 15 minute period. We then called the hotel 2 times and no answer. I then called Hotels.com to see of there was a solution to which they called 2 times and no answer! Hotels.com person transferred me to the resolution dept. Elle, outstanding customer service individual, also called the Comfort Inn 2 times and no response. Elle then searches the area for a room to accommodate us for the 3 day stay. Elle spoke with Josh at Holiday Inn Express in Selma. They secured a room for us!! Elle and Josh saved our trip!

Hotel appeared to be clean upon arrival,but later saw roaches in the bathroom. The bed my daughter slept in had bed bugs. The first nigjt,she only sustain about two or three bites. When she woke up after the second night,both arms and all around her neck was covered with bite,she was probably allergic to them because the site was swollen and red. We turned the covers back and we saw two crawling on the side of the mattress. Reported this to management, at first he said it might have been a ladybug, my daughter showed him her arms he then agreed it was bedbug bites. He stated that he was glad I reported it,to makeup for it,he deducted one night .
He was truly apologetic, he call to let me know that I had left a small bed throw on my pillow,told him to just trash it,that I intentionally left it because I thought it might have bugs on it. That let me know that he did check it out right away. He apologize again.

Not a safe place to stay!

We came in town for my father-in-laws funeral. All the other hotels in the area were booked. We got a great rate at this hotel through Hotels.com but although the rooms were clean and the beds were comfy, I did not feel safe at this hotel.
First of all, the side doors did not close all the way and anyone could come in. That's exactly what happened. When I woke up on our third and final morning, there were two men asleep in the hallway outside my door! I would have had to step over them to leave my room. They didn't even move when I slammed the door shut in fear. I told my husband who called the front desk. They did nothing. So my husband called his cousin who was staying across the hall and they finally shooed them out. But when we went to complain at the front desk, the walked right in the front door and the person at the desk let them sleep on the chairs in the entry way!
This was ridiculous! All of the guests eating breakfast could see them there just sleeping, and they slept there for over an hour!
I would not recommend this place. Not safe!

Lacking in customer service.

A good value for your money, but desk staff was lacking. The whole time she was checking us in she was on her cell with o personal call giving someone advice on how to quit their job. At one point her friend seemed concerned that she wasn't listening to her and she assured her she was, \"I'm just checking someone in.\" Glad we were high on her priority list. No eye contact and no explanation as to where our room was located. She then could give her full attention to her personal call. Fortunately there's a large map at the desk where I could note where to park and enter. Please apologize to her for our interrupting her call. The woman at the desk in the morning was much more personable, plus she was handling setting out breakfast. We appreciated her professional manner. On the positive side, room was clean and bed comfortable. However about midnight 2 or three people gathered on the bench below our window and talked loudly for about an hour making falling asleep impossible until they left.

A Gem named Katie

We were there for the weekend to attend a retirement party. Even though Selma is a small town, the staff at the Comfort Inn were very big on hospitality. We were warmly greeted by Katie at the front desk. She quickly checked us; although we arrived before check-in. Katie's favorite phrase was \"it's no problem \" and she meant it too as we soon found out. We noticed the stairwell as we were about to get our luggage. We didn't know the hotel was without an elevator and with two members of our party suffering from COPD and had recently been hospitalized; this was going to be a problem. No fear, Katie to the rescue again, as she swiftly changed our second floor rooms to the first floor. She surely made our stay a pleasure.

Great hotel but needs work a little work with security

Was in town for a funeral. For the most part service and cleanliness was fine. What concerned me was the fact that the exterior doors along backside, where I was, were not kept locked. They had key things on them but were left open the entire time I was there. When you pay for interior entrances, you'd like exterior doors to stay locked.
