- Williams (9/5): -
- Frazier (3/5): -
- natasha (10/5): - It was short notice for us to stop and we stopped there and had rooms left. The young lady that night was sweet, kind, and accommodating It was good all around
- Watkins (9/5): - Very friendly and helpful staff Only issue I experienced was the A/C didn't seem to run long enough. But the fact I was sunburnt may have played a part in that.
- Vira (10/5): -
- Jake (8/5): When trying to save money this place is worth the money. - The price was good and the room was clean no bugs or anything.
For being down town it was quite enough to steep. The bed was not quite as comfortable as I am use to.
- Leticia (5/5): Friendly staff, but sub par facility - The staff were all tremendously nice and helpful. We did not shower because the water was orange. The room was dimly lit with all the lights on.
- wayne (7/5): It was semi enjoyable - I liked the coffee I liked the TV channels No breakfast
- Devan (1/5): Horrible!! - Location Very outdated, smelled horrible. All staff (but one lady at the front desk that works mornings) were very rude.
- Goodson (8/5): -
- Steve (9/5): -
- Shavonna (4/5): - Not much Nothing honestly
- Gary (7/5): -
- Jennifer (8/5): Good for the money. - Room was clean, bed was comfortable, and price was good. Brief walk to downtown restaurants and brewery.

- Jeffrey (10/5): - Great place at a good price right downtown. You can walk pretty much anywhere you want to go. I definitely would stay here again.
- Mason (5/5): Passable -
- Bradley (8/5): Very good -
- Bradley (8/5): Very good -
- Kcee (1/5): ALL BAD! 💥 - I liked the location. It's close to restaurants and schools and events in the area. The staff was RUDE RUDE RUDE! We used Booking app to reserve our trip for three (3). Our friend had a very traumatic time recently and we were her comfort these RUDE PPL @ STUDIO PUT threw us out at 8:30 pm. No rules were violated. We took our friend to dinner and returned to the hotel and she told us to get off her property and she threw racial slurs embarrassed us on the road people were staring it was another traumatizing thing added to her life too quickly on top of what she's going through. The manager was wrong and we don't deserve to be outside freezing right now and we didn't violate any of the hotels rules. This kind of treatment from businesses in our community is unacceptable.
- Leslie (10/5): - Stayed for 1 night while in town for a conference. Room was clean and spacious. Bed was comfy. Water was hot and had good water pressure. I had absolutely no complaints with our stay. Thank You Studio 9 Inn!!
- Tori (10/5): Clean peaceful environment - Room was clean. Staff was attentive and sweet.
- Sullivan (9/5): Superb -
- White (7/5): Good - Quiet No toilet paper
- Webb (10/5): Comfortable stay - I loved the location. Convenient to many Decatur attractions. The staff was super friendly. The room I had was very clean and everything worked properly. I had a smooth check in and check out process. I would most definitely stay here again ! Everything was wonderful in my opinion.
- Green (1/5): Terrible - Nothing about service
- Jabari (10/5): - It was remote and quiet.
- Gary (7/5): Good -
- Kenyati (9/5): Superb -
- Bryan (6/5): If I was the kind of traveler to invite someone back to my room, NOT HERE, but fine for me alone. - The bed was comfortable, and all entrances were locked. Housekeeping replaced my hand towel, wash rag, and shower stuff without my having to ask. The jet tub worked well. Everything was dated and dim. The towels were thin. The room door stuck to the point of seeming locked when I first arrived, and was slightly better by the time I left. The external door was nondescript (walked past it trying to get in and had to go back) and didn't close on its own.
- Verified traveler (6/5): - The staff was friendly and helpful. The room was very outdated, old furniture and bedding. The hotel had no amenities.
- Amy (8/5): Very good - Staff very friendly
- Maria Christina (10/5): - The room was nice and clean. The gentleman at front desk was very polite and friendly. Which is very rare these days. We ended up staying an extra night!!
- Misty (9/5): Superb -
- Dj (6/5): Pleasant -
- Amber (8/5): Very good - Clean
- Thomas (6/5): Reasonable for one night travel stay, but not for conducting business. - Location No breakfast, internet signal was very weak and not conducive to conducting business. Actually left early because could not conduct my business with the poor internet service.
- DONALD (4/5): - Property should not be on Expedia period. The worst place I have ever stayed. Expedia should have someone look at a place before marketing a place for anyone.
- Wesley (7/5): Not a bad place for the price - Easy to find , close to point mallard
Has a gas station next door if your in need of it
Has an elevator Our refrigerator wasnt cooling and the building shows its age
- Michelle (3/5): Piss poor from entry to exit - Absolutely nothing the man who checked me in was very rude, there was also a$30 fee that wasn't listed in the price on the app and the place could use a serious face lift. Walked into the room and the first thing we see is a cockroach crawling on the the refrigerator was off and the door on it was open and it had a horrible smell extremely tired I overlooked all of that and checked the bed for bed bugs as I always do there weren't any bugs but there was a disturbing amount of hair between the top and bottom sheet I'm pretty sure they hadn't been changed. I WOULDN'T LET MY DOGS STAY HERE AND I MOST DEFINITELY WON'T VISIT THERE AGAIN!!
- Hitt (3/5): Poor -
- Orr (10/5): Exceptional -
- Verified traveler (10/5): Great place to stay with reasonable price - The room was clean, tidy, and quiet. We were very pleased! The staff was friendly as well.
- Jay (10/5): Exceptional -
- Rodney (8/5): - Great place to stay!!!!
- Sylvia (9/5): Superb -
- Savage (10/5): Exceptional!! - I was very apprehensive booking a hotel online but our stay was great. The staff/owners of the hotel were exceptional. They were so helper holding doors open, making us coffee to fill our thermos up and even made sure we had our extra towels we had asked for at check in. Next time we are in Decatur we will be staying again. Thanks!! Nothing
- Mike (5/5): Passable - Room was large had two bathrooms 10 ft from street on street level. Freezer door wouldn't shut.old motel mis match furniture
- Lori (4/5): - No one was at the check in desk for over 10 minutes
- Cheri (8/5): Studio 9 - I always stay here during competitions because of the convenience and good price of the hotel. Rooms are always clean.
- Glenda (8/5): - It was quiet and clean , nothing fancy but good for the price
- Spare (5/5): Scam artist - The guy at the front office tried to scam me out of more money. He insisted that I didn't pay even after I showed him several times on my phone that I had already paid on booking.com he then accepted the fact that I already paid and then blamed me for not telling him sooner...🤦♂️
- Keith (4/5): Disappointing - Large room. Very friendly staff at check in. Water pressure great water warm. Quiet and comfortable. One toilet leaked when flushed. Half of the jets on the spa tub didnt work. Room a little dated but still comfortable. When checking out told the day clerk that toilet leaked and the spa tub didn't work correctly. He didn't really care about it. I won't be going back so it really doesn't matter.
- Adrian (2/5): Very poor -
- Roy (6/5): - The room was clean and looked like it was recently remodeled, the bed ok, the shower was great but the building is run down and definitely needs to be updated. It was affordable, bottom line I would stay here again.
- Velencia (6/5): Female employee was rude - The female employee that worked there was very rude to my husband. I feel like it is a way how you talked to someone to get a point across in my opinion. We didn't know that the whole area wasn't a no smoking area. Instead of having a negative attitude with him, just asked politely to moved to a smoking area and we will be fine, but instead she was very rude and disrespectful
- Eric (5/5): Adequate for a quick night stay - Room was adequate, clean and the bed was comfortable. Bathroom was dated, front door needs weatherstripping and my room was over the office and faced the main road. It sounded like a drag strip until about midnight and starts again with road traffic fairly early. The tv didn’t work and staff wasn’t able to get it working so there was no way to drown out the outside noise.
- Michael (10/5): - The check-in was easy and loading made convenient, especially with the elevator. Staff was always friendly and very helpful, and in one situation, went above the call of duty to help us. We are very appreciative. The room was neat and clean and was serviced at our request. The motel is just a few minutes off I-65 on the north side of Decatur and is worth the extra time, espcially if you are visiting local attractions, I our case, the Wheeler National Wildlife Refuge.
- Susan (5/5): Passable - I had to pay a $20 deposit that was supposed to be refunded to my card and never was
- John (8/5): Very good -
- Jeanetta (10/5): Exceptional -
- Tina (10/5): - It was quite and peaceful
- Anonymous (8/5): Very good -
- James (1/5): Worst places I’ve stayed in a a long long timer - Well the good things.., it was moderately clean and the heater was able to keep it at 65 degrees on full blast so we didn’t freeze to death Not clean, heater didn’t work well, uncomfortable beds and VERY rude owner.
I am a disabled vet with a service dog. Walked in and paid. Told them he was a service dog and the owner called the room a few minutes late screaming about the service dog. Told me he didn’t care about the laws he wanted us out. I invited him to call the police and went to bed. He did not. Phone call with him was recorded and had been sent to ADA Katie, DOJ and Alabama attorney general
- Brandy (10/5): Nice and relaxing - Really nice and clean… Just need more lighting outside
- Angel (8/5): - It's affordable, quiet, great location
- Alessandro (5/5): Passable -
- Blake (7/5): Good -
- Bradley (5/5): Poor staff - Convenient location Upon check out, desk staff made me wait and checked the room; then made me go back to my room to clean up three candy wrappers, two beer bottles, and a burger wrapper that I left on a desk before giving me back my $20 deposit. Petty.
- Tashua (8/5): Very good -
- Jesse (8/5): Very good -
- Kevin (10/5): A bargain at the price point - Always enjoy the price point and the service. My rooms are always clean and well stocked and I choose smoking rooms when I can. The management is friendly.
- Mark (8/5): Very good -
- Adrian (8/5): - we only needed a over night stay
- Amanda (6/5): - Not being familiar with the area, we booked this room. Should have known that the price reflected the poor condition of the entire building. Dirty, run down, no amenities, hot and loud! Stay on the beaten path! You get what you pay for!
- Phillip (6/5): Bed was old and worn out. - Bed was old and worn out.
- Thomas (8/5): - The rooms were nice
- Thomas (10/5): - Very courteous
- Thomas (8/5): - I could not get wi fi in my room although I was given the password .
- Michael (10/5): Great place to stay when visiting cullman or decatur - Cheap and clean and close
- Mcdugald (7/5): Good -
- Jeremy (2/5): - I did not feel safe at this property. Sketchy characters walking around. Drug deal in the parking lot. Extremely run down. Nobody at check in desk. So bad that I told the lady I was leaving. She said that I was "Going to lose my money." I told her that I wasn't going to risk staying there over $225. FYI this is the first review that I have ever made. Take my advice and STAY AWAY.
