Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
We just checked out today. Quiet and nice place to rest. Literally 10min walk to the Beach. Front desk was 5 star service. Thank you guys for the 2day stay.
We had a great experience at the Forum. The staff was very friendly, parking wasn't overly tight. The hotel location is a few blocks from the boardwalk, the beach, and the main shops of Ocean City New Jersey. The pool area was clean and well-appointed with umbrellas for shade. The staff was friendly and courteous.
We had a nice experience just hoped the pool would be cleaner and I would have been able to enjoy it before check out but they were cleaning it and we weren’t going to have enough time. Everything else was good.
Very nice motel customer service rep at the front desk was very nice and polite. We were able to check in early.
Rooms were nice, decent size in the bathrooms were newly renovated showers were very clean.
That were a little hard and stiff, but the comforter and sheets that made up for it.
Plenty of parking
Only complaint is wish they had icemaker closer to the pool area.
Overall, very nice hotel would stay again due to the customer service. A gentleman of the front desk was very helpful.

Beds are comfortable
Close to boardwalk and restaurants
Room was clean and perfect size for me, my wife, and our 14 month old son! Plenty of room for his pack and play. Property has a nice, clean pool. Convenient location for local coffee spots and boardwalk. We always stay here!
Staff were extremely friendly and helpful. Rooms are updated and clean. We had one small issue with our door and it was fixed immediately. Great location in town.
Wonderful place to stay. Convenient location. Staff was very nice and super helpful. Only concern I had was stacked parking if didn’t get a single space. That just stressed me out so we just waiting for a single spot and didn’t go anywhere in our car while we were there.
