McComb's BEST Kept Secret: Comfort Inn & Suites Review (You WON'T Believe This!) - A Hot Mess of Honest Opinions
Alright, buckle up buttercups, because I just emerged, slightly bewildered but ultimately pleased, from the Comfort Inn & Suites in McComb, Mississippi. And let me tell you, it's a… thing. This ain't your average cookie-cutter hotel experience, folks. This is a wild ride of unexpected positives, minor annoyances, and the distinct aroma of Southern charm mixed with… well, let’s just say things haven't been completely renovated since the early 2000s. But hey, that’s part of the charm, right? Let's dive in, shall we? (And yes, I'm already feeling like I needed a stiff drink!)

(Metadata description: A brutally honest, hilarious, and insightful review of the Comfort Inn & Suites in McComb, MS. Covering everything from accessibility to the questionable art on the walls, this review is a must-read before you book your stay. You won't believe what we found!)
Accessibility - It's… a Mixed Bag, Honestly:
Okay, let's be upfront: Accessibility is present, but not perfect. They say they have Wheelchair Accessible rooms, which is a big plus. Elevator present, check. That's the good news. I'm not in a wheelchair myself, but I did notice things that might be a challenge. Maneuvering around the lobby can be slightly tight, especially if other guests are present. I also didn't see any specifics about the bathroom setup in the accessible rooms, like grab bars and the like. It requires more thorough research.
On-site accessible restaurants / lounges - Sadly, the review I conducted didn't feature a dedicated one of these.
Internet Access - Praise Be for Free Wi-Fi & LAN (Sort Of!)
Free Wi-Fi in all rooms! YES! And it actually works! Internet access is strong and reliable too. I give it a solid A. And look, I'm not a techie, but they also have Internet [LAN] which probably means something to someone out there. (Is that still a thing?) I used the Internet services for work; a big win for me. This is a godsend. The speed meant I could actually do stuff without wanting to throw my laptop out the window, and even enjoyed the comfort of Wi-Fi in public areas.
Cleanliness and Safety - Sanitized, But…
Alright, let's be real. Cleanliness is a HUGE deal right now. They SERIOUSLY try, you can tell. They have Anti-viral cleaning products being used, I suppose, and the mandatory Daily disinfection in common areas is evident. They've got the Hand sanitizer stations everywhere, yup. They have Staff trained in safety protocol, yes. Professional-grade sanitizing services are also evident and Sterilizing equipment are present.
The fact of the matter, however, is that you can tell the bones of the hotel aren't new. You can tell this place saw some heavy usage pre-pandemic. Yes, your room is Rooms sanitized between stays. But, and hear me out, there's something…lingering. Not like…dirty. More like…old. Like the ghost of a thousand spilled sodas and a forgotten buffet. That said, it wasn't unclean by any means, just… not gleaming new. And the Room sanitization opt-out available is a good piece of mind.
As for safety, well, they have the basics: Fire extinguisher, Smoke alarms, and Security [24-hour]. I did notice CCTV in common areas. I also found there were CCTV outside property, a good sign.
Dining, Drinking, and Snacking - A Southern Buffet Adventure
Oh, the Breakfast [buffet]! Okay, this is where things get interesting. The Breakfast service is included, and honestly, it’s better than you might expect! It's got the usual suspects: cereal, pastries, scrambled eggs, sausage, waffles (made fresh!), and… biscuits. Oh, sweet Jesus, the biscuits! Fluffy, buttery, and perfect for soaking up gravy. (Yes, gravy). Yes, there is a Breakfast takeaway service
There are also Restaurants, though I confess, I didn't get a chance to explore all of them, but in the hotel, you will find some Coffee/tea in restaurant – perfect to wash down the big breakfast. Plus, a Snack bar for quick eats. I saw signs for Happy hour at the bar; I missed that too. I might have to go back just for that. I also found myself wondering whether there was Asian cuisine in restaurant, and International cuisine in restaurant, but didn't seem to find any. Also, there is a Poolside bar which I would love to have experienced during my stay.
Also, there seemed to be a Coffee shop and some Desserts in restaurant
Services and Conveniences - Your Southern Comfort Needs, Covered…Mostly…
Okay, first, let me say the staff here? Sweet. They are authentically, genuinely Southern sweet. The Doorman was friendly, the front desk was helpful. There is a Front desk [24-hour], you'll love it.
They have Air conditioning in public area, which is essential in Mississippi. Daily housekeeping is included, and they actually do a good job. Laundry service and Dry cleaning are available, which is nice. Cash withdrawal is available. Luggage storage is available, too.
I always appreciate a Convenience store in a hotel, you never know when you are going to need something in a pinch.
The Meeting/banquet facilities looked decent, and there is Indoor venue for special events and Outdoor venue for special events.
I also notice Car park [free of charge], which is a relief. There is Car park [on-site].
For the kids - Eh?
I can neither confirm nor deny the existence of leprechauns, but there is Babysitting service offered, as well as Kids facilities, and a Kids meal. Not a real review of the facilities though.
Things to do, ways to relax - Spa, Spa, Spa(ish)
Okay, the website says they have a Spa. Spa/sauna. Okay. This is a bit of a stretch. Maybe it was a former spa? Anyway, I didn't see it, so I can't rightly review it. However, there is a Swimming pool and a Swimming pool [outdoor], and a Pool with view, and they were pretty decent. I'm not sure about a Body scrub, and Body wrap, but hey, one can hope! They also advertise a Fitness center, but I didn't check it out.
Available in all rooms:
Alright, the rooms. They're… functional. And the Wi-Fi [free] rocks, again. They have Air conditioning, which is clutch. Blackout curtains are a definite plus, especially for sleeping in after a biscuit-fueled breakfast. A Desk is there for working, though I found myself mostly lounging on the bed with my laptop. The Coffee/tea maker is a nice touch. They give you Free bottled water which you can either drink or use to wash your hands. There are Bathrobes and Slippers included, too. The Telephone works (remember those?) and the Alarm clock actually does work! The Mirror, is there (I checked). A Refrigerator is in every room. A Hair dryer and Ironing facilities are there. The Seating area is nice to have, too. There is a Private bathroom and Shower, and a Separate shower/bathtub. There are Non-smoking rooms which are a necessity, and the Extra long bed. Wake-up service is another available service.
The Flaws & The Fun - The Honest Truth
- The art. Oh, the art. Let's just say it's… eclectic. And by "eclectic," I mean some of it seems like it was salvaged from a yard sale. The kind of art that makes you question your life choices.
- The elevator. It moved slowly; maybe it was just me.
- The location. McComb, Mississippi, is… well, it's McComb, Mississippi. Not exactly a bustling metropolis. But it's close to everything. And that's really what you need
Okay, buckle up, buttercups, because this ain't your grandma's travel itinerary. We're ditching the pristine bullet points and embracing the glorious, messy chaos of actually being a person on a trip to the Comfort Inn & Suites in Mccomb, Mississippi. Prepare for feels, folks. This is what it really looks like:
Destination: Comfort Inn & Suites, Mccomb, Mississippi (pray for us)
Day 1: Arrival, and the Questionable Promise of Indoor Plumbing
1:00 PM - Arrival & Check-In (or, the slow-motion train wreck of anticipation)
- Alright, so, Mccomb. I've seen pictures. I’ve Googled "things to do in Mccomb, MS." My expectations are, shall we say, tempered. The Comfort Inn, though? A beacon of hope, maybe? Okay, maybe not. Let’s be real, it’s a Comfort Inn. I’m here for the free continental breakfast, the questionable internet, and the faint hope of avoiding a truly terrifying room.
- Anecdote: The drive down here was a thing. I swear, if one more truck decided to tailgate me while blasting country music… Well, let's just say I'm lucky to have made it out here. I probably need to leave my attitude in the car.
- Imperfection Alert: I forgot my toothbrush. I am officially a disgusting human being.
1:30 PM - Room Reconnaissance (Pray for a good mattress!)
- Okay, here we go. Key card swipe, deep breath. Pray to the travel gods for a vaguely clean room and for the AC to work.
- Quirky Observation: The hallway smells vaguely of chlorine and… loneliness? Is that weird? Probably. Also, is that a painting of a generic barn scene? I swear, every hotel in America has the same generic art.
- Emotional Reaction: Please, please let the sheets be clean. I'm not asking for much.
2:00 PM - Unpacking & Settling In (or, the real-world version of "making myself at home")
- Okay, so the room isn't a biohazard. That's a win! Now, the unpacking. This is where my inner sloth fully emerges. It's like, do I really need to hang up my clothes? Or can I just live out of my suitcase for the next three days? Probably.
- Opinionated Language: The bed is actually… not terrible. I mean, it's no Four Seasons, but it'll do. The pillows, though… are those even considered pillows? More like flattened bricks.
- Rambling: I wonder what the story is behind all the different tourists that come here. Like what's their goal? Did have a car accident? Relatives living here? I hope everyone has a good stay.
3:00 PM - Poolside Debacle (attempted relaxation amidst questionable chlorine levels)
- Okay, the pool. I saw an advertisement for it. Was it a bad decision? I think so.
- Emotional Reaction: I'm pretty sure my skin is screaming. The pool water tastes like a mix of chlorine and regret.
5:00 PM - Dinner at a Local Spot (fingers crossed for something edible!)
- Okay, so I'm walking down the road and I see a barbecue place. Let's do it. I can walk, it has a good rating, they can't be too bad, right?
- Quirky Observation: Oh, I'm so glad I came here. The ribs are wonderful. All the sides are delicious. This place makes me think about my own grandmother. I love this. I'm making a mental note to come here more often.
Day 2: A Deep Dive into… Well, Mostly the Comfort Inn
7:00 AM - The Continental Breakfast Ritual (survival of the fittest, folks)
- Alright, the moment of truth. The free breakfast. This is where dreams… go to die. Or at least, where the waffles are a solid, vaguely artificial texture.
- Anecdote: The waffle maker situation is always a battleground. You've got your waffle hogs, your "I'll just stand here and wait for the next one" people, and then there's me, awkwardly trying to navigate the tiny tongs and the sticky syrup dispensers.
- Opinionated Language: The coffee? Let's just say it's "coffee-ish." And the fruit? Looks like it's seen better days.
- Alright, the moment of truth. The free breakfast. This is where dreams… go to die. Or at least, where the waffles are a solid, vaguely artificial texture.
8:00 AM - Room Duty (lazing around as long as possible)
- I'm not doing anything, I am just chilling for now.
9:00 AM - The Great Comfort Inn Adventure: Laundry! (The Unexpected Epic!)
- Laundromat adventures! It was a long walk back where I am from. So this experience is new and exciting!
- Emotional Reaction: I did it! I found the washing machine! I put my clothes on and now they're getting washed. They're turning! I love it.
- Rambling: This washing machine has got me wondering if I should buy one. I love the way that they work in the dryer is so efficient. Maybe I will.
Day 3: Departure – and the lingering whiff of chlorinated regret
- 7:00 AM - The Final Breakfast (with gritted teeth)
- Same deal as yesterday, except now I know exactly what I'm getting myself into. The questionable waffles still call my name.
- 8:00 AM - Pack, and Prepare (for the inevitable return to reality)
- Okay, time to shove everything back into the suitcase. This time, I'll get everything that I have for the trip done.
- 9:00 AM - Check Out (freedom awaits!)
- Goodbye, Comfort Inn! You were… an experience. I'm mostly just relieved I made it out alive.
- Emotional Reaction: Mixed emotions, honestly. Sad to leave the comfort of not having to do anything, but also excited to go back home and sleep in my own bed.
- 10:00 AM - Drive back (with hopefully no more trailer hitch tailgaters)
- Imperfection Alert: I’m sure I'll forget something. Probably my charger. Or my sanity. Either way, back to real life.
- Final Rambling: Well, that was Mccomb. Not perfect, but hey, I survived. And hey, I have a story to tell, right? And hey, there is a barbeque joint. I'd stay for that forever.
So there you have it. A real-life, super-honest, and unapologetically messy glimpse into a trip to the Comfort Inn & Suites in Mccomb, MS. Sometimes, the best trips are the ones that don't go exactly as planned. Now, if you'll excuse me, I need to find a decent coffee shop and a really good burger to wash away the taste of hotel breakfast. Wish me luck. And may your own travels be filled with slightly less chlorine and a whole lot more adventure.

McComb's "BEST Kept Secret" Comfort Inn: You WON'T Believe THIS! (A Messy FAQ)
Okay, Seriously, Is This Place *Actually* a "Best Kept Secret"? Don't Lie to Me.
Look, "best kept secret" is a HUGE claim, right? I went in expecting some kind of dilapidated mess with a charming local owner. What I got was... well, *mostly* charming, but with a few bumps. It's not the Ritz, people. But for McComb, Mississippi? Listen. For the price and relative cleanliness? Yeah. I'd cautiously call it a secret. Sometimes. Depends on the day, really.
The Pool. Tell me about the POOL. It's Crucial.
The pool... *breathes deeply* ... Okay. The pool is… there. Let me put it like this: I wouldn't schedule a swim-themed vacation *around* it. One time I walked in, expecting a revitalizing dip, and the water was… not exactly crystal clear. Some leaves. Maybe a rogue frog leg. Okay, probably just leaves, I'm exaggerating. (Maybe.) The other time? Sparkling! Beautiful! Luck of the draw, folks. Bring your own pool-cleaner-esque expectations. It’s a gamble. But hey, at least there *is* a pool, right? And sunshine in Mississippi!
What About the Breakfast? Is it the Usual Hotel Craziness?
Breakfast is… predictable. The usual suspects: waffles (make 'em yourself! which is either amazing or a pain depending on your mood), some scrambled eggs, the ubiquitous (and sometimes questionable) sausage. Cereal. Oatmeal. Toast (a staple!). Fruit – often with that slightly-too-ripe-but-still-edible quality. Coffee? Strong. Very strong. Potentially the best part of the whole experience! I swear, some mornings, that coffee was the only thing keeping me going. Don't get your hopes up for gourmet, just grab a plate and survive. You can always supplement with local eateries, if you dare to. Good luck!
I'm a Cleanliness Snob. Help Me.
Alright, cleanliness snobs, I hear you. I walked in, inspecting EVERY SINGLE SURFACE. Dust bunnies? Potentially. But generally? Pretty good. Certainly decent. The bathroom? Surprisingly sparkling. Which is always a relief. My biggest panic was about the sheets, I always check. They were... well, clean. No suspicious stains. You *might* want to bring your own pillowcase, just in case your expectations are extra high. (I sometimes do. Don't judge.) The worst I saw was some minor dirt on the baseboards, but that's hotel life. You can't expect perfection! If you need antiseptic, bring travel wipes!
Any "Hidden Gems" About the Hotel We Shouldn't Miss?
Hmm, "hidden gems"... Okay, this isn’t exactly a "gem" per se, but the elevator ride is… an experience. It's slow. Really slow. Like, you might age a year during it. Embrace the forced meditation. Take it as an opportunity to gather your thoughts. Or, if you’re feeling impatient, just take the stairs. (Which can be a good workout!). And maybe… *maybe* the lobby is a bit dated, but in a comforting, slightly-retro kind of way. Feels like stepping back in time a little bit. But for real? The staff. They’re *generally* nice, even if it takes a while to resolve any issues. Be nice to them, you will get good service. Or food recommendations.
I've Heard About Problematic Parking. Is This True?
Parking… yes. It can *sometimes* be a bit of a squeeze. Especially if you're arriving late at night. I had to park pretty far away from the entrance one time, and walk with all my luggage, in the dark. Not the best experience. Then again, McComb isn't exactly a bustling metropolis, so… overall it really isn’t a horrible problem, but it is a potential issue. Just be prepared to shuffle a bit if you are unlucky. Come EARLY!
Okay, So, What REALLY Made You Go Back? (Be Honest!)
Alright, alright, you caught me. I kept going back because, despite the… quirks… it was relatively clean, the price was right, and frankly, I wasn't expecting the Four Seasons. There's also a certain… *charm* to it. The little things. Like, the fact that the staff, even with everything, seems to try their best to make you feel welcome. It’s reliable. It's… *homely* in a slightly-worn-out way. It's the kind of place that makes you lower your expectations and just go with the flow. Plus, the coffee. Did I mention the coffee? Seriously, it's… *good*. Just don't go in expecting luxury. Go in expecting a solid, budget-friendly stay. And maybe bring your own coffee, in case they run dry. Just a thought.
