Have you tried using the right arrow to go into your Documents folder? E.g. Type "docu", Documents shows up as top results, right arrow, then pick your action either by arrow down or cmd + number. If all you want to do is open a folder, prefix your search term by "open" or hit the spacebar first (shortcut for "open"). If you want to reveal it in Finder, just type "find" first, and if you want to search inside files, just type "in" first. If you give Alfred a chance (and accept that it isn't trying to be Quicksilver), you'll really get into a groove with it.
