Forum Residence Hotel

Good points Pool, atmosphere, staff, meals all great. Room cleaning service very good. Showers knock your socks off if you're weirdly wearing socks to bathe. Very centrally located. Less good You get stung for a 6 gbp per night air-conditioning charge so be ready for that. There's a mosque next door and morning prayers start at dawn. Luckily they have a PA system so you can hear it in room clear as anything. Rooms are basic but ok for the price. Beds are kinda uncomfortable. If you have bed and breakfast basis, the included breakfast is very meh. You can pay for a full English but we went down the road to the greasy spoon and had excellent full english there for around a fiver. The coffee machine did produce nice cappuccino though it looked end of life. Marmaris beach close by (5 min walk) but is a very thin stretch of gravelly sand with bity fish on the shoreline. We went there one time and was enough for us. Luckily the hotel pool was good. The on site shop was expensive. 20 gbp for an inflatable, 4 gbp for an ice cream. Just past the migros supermarket next door, inflatables were half the price.
