It is good that you are asking, research always helps.
I have used Flow, Dayuse, as well as hourly hotels.
Dayuse is good for hotels like M or Grand Copthorne. About $200-250, 9am to 6pm.
The Hourly are hourly. Typically $30 for an hour, $45 for two.
With Dayuse, I book, register, and hang around the lobby; we take the lift up. The lady does not need to register at all. You can order room service, relax for the day. Most throw in Pool and Gym access as well.
The Hourly,
both need to register. You meet up outside, walk in, and register. Pay cash, get a keycard, drop it off when you leave. Sometimes one of us turns up late, so you can register, they tell you your room number, and you tell them "my friend will be joining later"; and she tells them the room number when she arrives. Your time starts when you first register.
In neither location is there any comment, judgement, or questions (I assume you are both 18+). You get the same look as the bus driver gives you when you board for not being able to afford a car. With 60 rooms, the checkin clerk sees 300 of us per shift. The 7-11 guy does not judge you for smoking menthols.
I can recommend two hotels, clean, with indifferent staff: Fragrance Lavendar and Ibis Imperial, both next to each other on Penhas/Lavendar. If one is full, the other is not (I have been directed by one to the other). There is parking, coffee shops around, etc.
Apart from the front desk, you will see no staff anyway.
Have fun, stay safe, and relax.
Oh, and the M and Fairmont and Grand Copthorne and Furama (all of whom I have used) know exactly what you are doing for the 6 hours. But they got bills to pay.

But there is also this App like Flow or Dayuse. Anyone tried them, would the hotel staff make strange comments if you come with someone to do the obvious?
Please let me know if you have any other tips....
