Forum

I have been to the Forum 3 or 4 times, and slept comfortably. I don't get all the negative reviews. OK, the bathroom IS small, but the rooms are good-sized, the beds and atmosphere very restful. If you're really bothered by the fact that it once was a hospital, is run by unabashed Christians & doesn't allow drinking or smoking, this is the wrong place for you. If not, well, it's just a nice place. Electronic locks provide extra security, breakfast was good though not extravagant - everything you need. My husband is going to be very disappointed that it doesn't seem to be available for New Year's Eve. Sold out, I guess. So it looks like more people want a clean & clean-cut place than a grubby party hotel after all - lots of those left! This one is truly nice.

I stay at the Forum when I come to Ft Lauderdale on business. It's a clean, safe, well-maintained, no-frills hotel that provides a good nights sleep, clean atmosphere and a continental breakfast the next morning.

The property is great in the centre of a small town. Number of eating and drinking places close by. HOWEVER there is no front desk and arrangements have to be made to check in. There's a buzzer at the door but nobody answers. The assumption is that everyone has a working cell phone to call the owners who live next door and get someone to come and check you in. We had to take our phone off "airplane mode" which cost us 8 Euros. Not good. We don't use Hostals as a rule and this won't change that practice.
