Hotel Studio 6 Tulsa (Tulsa, USA)

Visitors were keen on the location of this motel just off the intersection of Interstate 44 and US Route 64 in Tulsa, north-eastern Oklahoma. Not only were there several eateries and bus stops in the vicinity, but also it was reportedly a doddle to get to local attractions, sports arenas, the airport, universities and museums. The free parking was another plus for motorists.

These extended stay lodgings won praise from guests for offering large rooms with seating areas and well-equipped kitchenettes, where they could easily prepare meals at their convenience using the provided appliances and utensils. The general consensus from reviewers was that the rooms weren’t luxurious but did manage to be sufficiently clean and comfy for their needs. There was further praise for the shared leisure facilities including an inviting seasonal outdoor swimming pool and fitness centre plus basketball and tennis courts.

Guests often said they encountered friendly, obliging and professional personnel. Those travelling with their four-legged-friends welcomed the way pets were allowed in certain rooms.

Although many reviewers remarked that their rooms were fresh and clean, there were reports of unpleasant smells in others. These included musty odours and lingering smoky smells, even in some of the non-smoking rooms.

It was claimed by some critics that the standard of cleanliness could have been improved in several rooms. Issues encountered included floors that could have been more vigorously cleaned and insufficiently cleaned bathrooms.

Malfunctioning cooking appliances, non-functioning cable channels, poor TV reception, cigarette burns and broken door locks plus decor, fixtures and furniture that had seen better days were among the maintenance grumbles that irritated critics in certain rooms.
