Staff was helpful, rooms were ok but the halls were dirty and smells bad. Price was reasonable so for what I paid it was what I expected. I just needed a place to rest a few hours.

My room was clean and was all I needed. The stairways and hallways were in need of small repairs and a good cleaning. The outside areas could also use some maintenance and cleaning. Overall for the money, it was okay.

Walls were very thin and the hallways smelled like weed but other then that, a good choice for a cheap hotel. I appreciated everything provided in the room, a stove, full fridge, toaster, microwave and other appliances.
It was nice and quiet and the rooms were very clean

I stayed there for a few months and I must say how quiet the place is. The rooms were nice and clean. There is always someone at the front desk at all hours to help you when you need help. Vending machines actually have things you can eat and not just snacks!! Employees were very kind and helpful. No regrets in booking at Studio 6!!
Aging property with relatively clean rooms. Suitable for an extended stay on a budget. It's location is convenient for shopping and restaurants.

The room was nice, it has everything needed for a nice extended stay! Having a pool is a great perk of the hotel, staff is very friendly and quick on any maintenance issues! Could use some updates to help with security, but overall we really enjoyed our stay!
Saw some mixed reviews but it was super clean, staff was super friendly, and I didn’t feel unsafe at any point!

The room itself reasonable clean without any bugs as far as I could tell. The property is run down - halls look and smell like something out of a horror movie. It got me off the road when I was weary, but wouldn’t recommend.
