I think your length of choice is fine, provided you don't have a roof or crossbeams above you that might interfere with casting or hook setting. Your choice of action (lite) would also be fine, IMHO.
Now, as far as "brand/model" ... that's up to you & your budget. Also, what reel you plan on putting on it might make a difference ... especially if you intend to cast or jig with it. You want the weight of the reel to balance out the weight of the length of the rod.
I, personally, use a 6'6" ESP PowerLite rod for most of my jig casting. The reel on it is a Shimano Spirex 1000.
If you already have a reel you want to put on the rod ... buying a rod that has a Tenn style handle will allow you to place the rod on the handle where it balances best. If you buy a rod with a fixed reel seat, you may have to "hands on" test the reel on the rod to make sure it will balance. If you can lay the rod/reel across your finger, at the very front end of the handle, and it will balance on your finger without rapidly falling towards the tip or reel ... then the outfit is pretty much balanced. Tip heavy outfits will strain your wrist ... handle heavy outfits, not so much, but they are "heavier" than necessary. A balanced outfit is more comfortable to use, and doesn't strain your wrist/arm.
