Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The St. James is a lovely historical hotel with a friendly staff. If you stay, reserve a room on the river with a view of the bridge. Be sure to visit the Voting Rights Museum and the park/shop at the base of the bridge. We are so glad we visited the city. We just wish Selma could be revitalized because it deserves that. It’s sad to see that so many beautiful buildings have become run-down.

The staff is horrible! They charged my card for my 2 night stay, but I already paid in full 2 weeks prior via Expedia.com. When I called to dispute the charges, the front desk clerk lied about her name. I learned the truth after I asked to speak with the manager. I still have not received a callback regarding the issue, very disappointed. The staff is very unreliable, responsiveness is less than satisfactory. I will never stay here again.

Very nice accommodations and renovations captured the elegance of the old Selma I remember when growing up. The staff members were professional, friendly & helpful. It has a beautiful courtyard with relaxing music, ideal for sitting outside and eating breakfast or having a glass of wine in the late afternoon (weather permitting). Very convenient location.

The only issue we had was the fire alarm went off at 1:30am and staff did not know how to disarm it once they determined there was no fire, I totally agree that the fire department should have been called as they were, however guests should have been alerted not to panic in a more timely manner, otherwise the property is nicely maintained and the location is awesome!! Having a functional restaurant on the property would have been amazing as there are few places to choose from otherwise.
