Marriott last year announced its latest brand, StudioRes, which is tailored for stays of 20+ nights (read more here).
The first StudioRes is scheduled to open in July this year, and Marriott has now released more information about Bonvoy points and elite qualifying nights earnings at this brand.

StudioRes Key Bonvoy Information:
Bonvoy members earn 4 points per USD
There is no elite bonus for StudioRes stays
Bonvoy members won’t earn elite qualifying nights for StudioRes stays
The StudioRes revenue is Ambassador qualifying (but you need the nights as well)
Marriott Brands & Bonvoy Points And Night Earnings:
Conclusion
Marriott offers bundled fees for StudioRes developers, which is likely behind these rather drastic Bonvoy earnings reductions (there is not much cash to play with).
I am not surprised that the earnings are cut at 4 points per USD, but no elite bonus or even elite qualifying nights?
Even Marriott Executive Apartment stays earn 1 elite qualifying night for every 3 nights.
