McComb's BEST Kept Secret: Quality Inn Review (You Won't Believe This!)
McComb's BEST Kept Secret: Quality Inn Review (You Won't Believe This!) - Seriously?
Alright, buckle up buttercups, because I'm about to spill the (probably slightly stained) tea on the Quality Inn in McComb. And let me tell you, "BEST Kept Secret"? The title alone had me intrigued. Was it a hidden speakeasy in the lobby? Some secret society meeting in the gym? Nope. But hold on, because it was a secret… a secret of… moderation.
Accessibility - Not Too Shabby, Could Be Better:
Okay, let's get the nitty-gritty out of the way first. Wheelchair Accessible? Yeah, they claim to be. I didn't need it, but I noticed some ramps and elevators, which is a good start. Facilities for Disabled Guests: They say they have them. Honestly, I didn't scrutinize every inch, but from what I saw, they've made an effort. The devil's in the details, so I can't give a definitive thumbs up OR thumbs down. More intel is needed.
Getting Around - Mostly Painless:
Car Park [Free of Charge]: Huge bonus! Finding a free parking spot is a win in my book. Car park [on-site]: Yep, right there. Taxi service: Available, if that's your jam. Airport transfer: Nope, you're on your own. So plan for a ride-share.
Arrival and First Impressions - The Good, the Okay, and the "Hmm…"
Check-in/out [express]: Didn't feel particularly "express." Pleasant enough, though. Check-in/out [private]: Nope. Front desk [24-hour]: Okay, nice to know someone's around if you need 'em. Doorman and Valet parking: Lol, no. Maybe a little "Welcome to McComb, here's your key card and good luck" vibe.
Rooms - The Truth is in the (Slightly Faded) Details:
Available in all rooms: Let's dive into this, shall we?
- Air conditioning: Absolutely. Essential. Check.
- Alarm clock: Yes. But mine definitely had a mind of its own. Wake-up Service? I ultimately opted to rely on my phone's alarm… more reliable.
- Bathtub: Check.
- Blackout curtains: Yesss! Slept like a log. Needed them; my room faced an exterior corridor shudders.
- Closet: Standard.
- Coffee/tea maker & Complimentary tea: Hallelujah! Caffeine is a survival necessity. The "complimentary" part is always lovely.
- Daily housekeeping: They did a good job, too!
- Desk, Ironing facilities, Laptop workspace: all functional. I ended up typing on my bed anyway.
- Extra long bed: I felt like a giant in their bed, but I loved it!
- Free bottled water: Nice touch.
- Hair dryer: Yep.
- In-room safe box: Provided.
- Internet access – LAN, Internet access – wireless, Wi-Fi [free]: Free Wi-Fi in all rooms! Thank goodness. And the internet was surprisingly decent. Internet: Fine. Internet services: Didn’t really need them.
- Linens: Clean.
- Mini bar: Nope. Not a problem. I brought my own snacks.
- Mirror: Check.
- Non-smoking: Definitely.
- On-demand movies: Nope.
- Private bathroom: Yep.
- Reading light: Yes.
- Refrigerator: Nope.
- Satellite/cable channels: Yes.
- Seating area, Sofa: Some rooms, yes. Not in mine.
- Separate shower/bathtub: Possibly depending on the room.
- Shower: Yes.
- Slippers: No.
- Smoke detector: Definitely. Safety/security feature: Always a plus.
- Socket near the bed: Thank goodness!
- Soundproofing: Okay.
- Telephone: Yes.
- Toiletries: Basic. Good for emergencies.
- Towels: Clean and fluffy enough.
- Umbrella: No. Bring your own.
- Visual alarm: Probably, but I didn't test it.
- Window that opens: Woohoo! Sometimes you need fresh air!
Cleanliness and Safety - Feeling Mostly Secure:
Cleanliness and safety: You know, I generally felt pretty safe. Covid-19 Precautions, in the form of: Anti-viral cleaning products, Hand sanitizer around, and Rooms sanitized between stays: Check, check, and check. Room sanitization opt-out available: Not that I saw. Still, I would've loved to see Professional-grade sanitizing services. The CCTV in common areas and CCTV outside property were reassuring. Fire extinguisher: Yay! Smoke alarms: Double Yay! I mean, everything looked clean and they claimed to be taking things seriously… but I can't give it a perfect score, as the Hygiene certification and the Sterilizing equipment and the Staff trained in safety protocol were not something I could visually verify. Oh! there was a First aid kit, good to know!
Dining, Drinking, and Snacking - Surprisingly Decent (For a Quality Inn):
Breakfast [buffet]: This is where the "secret" might've been. For a Quality Inn, the breakfast was… good. Not mind-blowing, but the usual suspects were there, and the coffee was surprisingly drinkable. I'm not sure if there was Asian breakfast but the Western breakfast was fine. Breakfast takeaway service: They also offered a takeaway option which was a fantastic idea and made sense.
I did not see any restaurants, coffee shop, snack bar, or Poolside bar, but I also didn't look that hard.
Things to Do, Ways to Relax - Gym? Maybe… Spa? Probably Not:
Fitness center: Okay. Gym/fitness: Okay. I did not actually work out. I had plans… but, yeah. Let's just say my idea of "fitness" was a brisk walk to the vending machine. They don't have any of the following: Body scrub, Body wrap, Foot bath, Massage, Pool with view, Sauna, Spa, Spa/sauna, Steamroom, Swimming pool, Swimming pool [outdoor]. Bummer.
Services and Conveniences – The Extras (Or Lack Thereof):
Air conditioning in public area: Yes. Business facilities: Not obvious. Concierge: Nope. Convenience store: Nope. Currency exchange: Obviously not. Cash withdrawal: I didn't see any. Daily housekeeping? Yes, and they did a good job! Facilities for disabled guests I thought I saw some. Gift/souvenir shop: Nope again. Ironing service I'm sure they must have, if it wasn't in the room. Laundry service: Probably. Luggage storage: Yes. Meeting/banquet facilities, Meetings, Meeting stationery: None that I saw. Smoking area: Yes. Terrace: No.
For the Kids – Maybe Not the Place to Bring 'Em:
Babysitting service: Nope. Family/child friendly: Hmmm… Not particularly. Kids facilities, Kids meal: Not visibly present.
Overall Vibe – Not Luxe, But Not Bad Either:
Look, the Quality Inn in McComb isn't the Ritz. It's not going to blow your mind with luxury. But it's clean, the staff were friendly enough, and the free parking and decent breakfast were a win. Anti-viral cleaning products, Hand sanitizer made me feel a little safer too. The exterior corridor feeling was a bit icky though.
Rating: 3.5 out of 5 Stars (for a Quality Inn, that’s a pretty solid score).

Okay, buckle up, buttercup, 'cause this ain't your grandma's travel itinerary. We're heading to the Quality Inn in McComb, Mississippi, and trust me, the journey will be as interesting as the destination. Buckle up and get ready for some honest, messy, and probably slightly deranged travel planning.
Subject: McComb, Mississippi - Pray for Me (And the Carpet!)
Day 1: Arrival & Existential Dread (Maybe a Burger?)
Time: Whenever I finally pry myself out of bed. Let's be real, the alarm clock is a suggestion, not a law. Probably 2 PM.
Activity: Drag myself onto the road. This is the part where my usually optimistic self starts to question all life choices. Including, but not limited to, "Why did I book a Quality Inn in McComb?" and "Did I actually pack underwear?" (Spoiler alert: Probably not. That's my life.)
Transportation: My trusty, beat-up (and probably in need of an oil change) minivan, affectionately nicknamed "The Vomit Comet." Don't ask.
Emotional State: A cocktail of excitement, mild panic, and the lingering scent of regret. I'm basically a bag of nerves with a map.
Evening: Arrive in McComb. Find the Quality Inn. Pray it doesn't look like something out of a horror movie. Check in. Hopefully the key card works. Then, the real test: assessing the room. Is the carpet clean? Does the AC work? Is there a suspicious stain that looks suspiciously like… well, you get the idea.
Dinner: MUST. FIND. FOOD. Preferably greasy, comforting, and capable of soothing my travel-induced anxiety. I'm thinking a burger. Maybe a dive bar. Lord, forgive me, for I am about to eat everything.
Anecdote: Last time I booked a budget hotel I got a room where the previous occupant had clearly hosted a rave. The blinking lights, the faint smell of… other things… it was an experience. I'm hoping for less rave, more quiet desperation this time.
Rambling Observation: Why is it that the less exciting locations often require the most driving? It's like the universe is laughing at my need for adventure. Or maybe it’s just the GPS mocking me.
Day 2: The Mississippi Blues (And Maybe Some Shopping? Don't Judge!)
- Morning: Wake up. Hopefully, the AC is working. Coffee. Coffee. Coffee. Because, travel.
- Activity: Explore! McComb is a city with a history. I think. Let's be honest, I haven’t researched anything. I’m basically an explorer of the unplanned. I’m thinking about checking out any local historical sites or shops. I may get a souvenir. A t-shirt is highly likely - I am weak.
- Transportation: The Vomit Comet. It will get us there. Eventually.
- Emotional State: Slightly less panic, more curiosity (and a healthy dose of caffeine-fueled optimism).
- Afternoon: Do some serious exploring. This usually involves me wandering around aimlessly, asking locals for recommendations, and accidentally stumbling into the most interesting (or weirdest) places. You know, the good stuff.
- Quirky Observation: Small towns always have the best antique stores. Even if I don't buy anything, I'll get to sniff old books and pretend I'm a historian.
- The Power of the Small Business: This is where I'll focus on just one "experience". This time I'm thinking exploring the McComb market, because I'm genuinely interested in what local business has to offer. I'll immerse myself in the sights, smells and people of the community.
- Dinner: Let's be real, by now I'll need a nap. Then, food. Dinner. Another burger? Maybe. Maybe some local soul food? I'm open to suggestion.
- Anecdote: One time in a small town, I stumbled upon a street fair. I ended up winning a pie-eating contest (don't judge, I was hungry) and made a bunch of friends who swore they knew my dad from college. Small towns are wild, and it’s always worth it to get lost in them.
- Messy Structure: Okay, I need to find out if McComb has a bowling alley. Because, why not? Also, I should probably call my mom. And maybe pack an extra pair of socks. You know, just in case.
Day 3: The Exit Strategy (And the Lingering Question of the Carpet Stain)
- Morning: Check out. Assess the emotional fallout.
- Activity: One last desperate search for a redeeming quality of McComb. Or, you know, just head for the highway.
- Transportation: The Vomit Comet, baby! We made it.
- Emotional State: A mix of relief, fatigue, and a strange sense of accomplishment. I survived.
- Farewell: One last look at the Quality Inn. Did that carpet stain move? Just kidding. (Maybe).
- Anecdote: Remember in the last hotel, there was the stain? Well…Let's just say I'm glad I packed my own bleach wipes. And a bottle of wine.
Conclusion:
This isn't a perfect itinerary. It's messy, it's unplanned, and it's probably going to be slightly chaotic. But you know what? That's life. And that's what makes it interesting. I'm going to McComb, Mississippi, as a person - Not a robot. Wish me luck. And please, send coffee.

McComb's BEST Kept Secret: Quality Inn Review (You Won't Believe This!) - FAQ (and Rants!)
Okay, Seriously… Is This Quality Inn *REALLY* a "Best Kept Secret"? What's the Deal?
Oh, honey, the "best kept secret" thing? Let's just say it's… ambitious. Look, McComb, Mississippi isn't exactly the Riviera. It *is*, however, a place where you might find yourself stranded needing a bed. That's where the Quality Inn comes in. Is it luxurious? Absolutely not. Is it pristine? Maybe not even close. But is it… memorable? Oh, darling, YES.
My "secret" is that it's a perfectly functional place to crash if you're on a budget… and maybe have a healthy sense of humor. Think: the grandma's house you only visit once a year, complete with slightly musty smells and a hearty breakfast.
The Rooms: What's The *Real* Inside Scoop?
Alright, the rooms. Let's be real. The decor is… dated. Think everything in shades of beige and brown that haven't been updated since the early 90s. I swear I saw a television set that looked like it was older than me.
But you know what? My bed was shockingly comfortable. I actually slept REALLY well. And the water pressure in the shower? Solid gold. And the walls are a bit thin, so you hear everything going on in the hallway. Which... is a whole other level of entertainment, especially at 3 AM. The A/C? Loud like a jet engine. But ultimately, it did its job.
My advice? Bring earplugs, a white noise machine, and a good sense of humor. And maybe some Lysol wipes. Just in case. You know, for the peace of mind. (Which, come to think of it, I should have done. Whoops.)
Breakfast: Because Free Food Can Make or Break a Hotel Experience. What About It?
Oh, the breakfast. This is where the legend truly begins... or maybe ends. It's included, people! And honestly, it’s… a gamble. I’m talking about a *choose-your-own-adventure* breakfast.
The usual suspects: the cold cereal, the sad-looking fruit (probably from last week), the slightly-stale pastries. The coffee? Well, let's just say it wakes you up. And sometimes it wakes you up from being asleep after you drank it.
But listen: one time, I swear, they had *biscuits and gravy*. And they weren't terrible! It was like a miracle! A greasy, slightly lumpy, but wonderfully comforting miracle. You never know what you're going to get. It’s the roulette of carbohydrates. Embrace the chaos.
Location, Location, Location… Is McComb Actually *Near* Anything Interesting? and the Hotel's Proximity?
Okay, let's get this straight: McComb is not exactly a hotbed of tourist activity. But hey, the Quality Inn is conveniently located… on the side of the highway. Really. Everything is a drive away.
The upside? It's easy to find when you're exhausted, and the parking is ample. The downside? You're kinda stuck in the middle of… well, in the middle of McComb. The drive-thru restaurants are your closest neighbors. But, depending on what you're looking for, that can be a *definite* plus. It depends on your mood and your blood sugar levels, right?
The Staff: Are They Secretly the Soul of the Place (or the Reason for the Sarcasm)?
Okay, the staff. This is where things get interesting. "Friendly" might be a stretch. "Efficient" is probably a better term. But honestly? I've always found them to be perfectly… adequate. I think they've seen things, you know?
The front desk clerk during my recent stay was a woman named Betty, who looked like she hadn't slept in 2 nights, had a slight sigh ready at her throat, and wore a name tag that looked older than the hotel itself. She got me my keycard though. She got me coffee. Betty is the best. Bless her heart.
Look, they're probably overworked and underpaid, dealing with who-knows-what shenanigans at all hours of the day and night. So, be polite, be patient, and maybe offer a smile. It could make their day. And maybe, just maybe, they'll tell you the *real* secrets of the Quality Inn.
Would I Recommend This Place? The Ultimate Verdict. *Really*.
Okay, the honest truth? It depends. Are you a discerning traveler? Do you demand pristine conditions and gourmet breakfasts? Avoid. Run.
But. But. If you're on a road trip, on a budget, and you just need a place to crash for a night, then… yeah, sure. Go for it. The Quality Inn will provide a place to sleep, and maybe, just maybe, a story or two.
Look, it's not the Ritz. But it's memorable. And sometimes, that's all you need, isn't it?
Final score? 3 out of 5 stars. Would stay again. Probably. Especially if I needed biscuits and gravy. You never know your luck!
