How guest reviews work
Each review score is between 1-10. To get the overall score that you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of review scores we’ve received. We use a weighted review system which means that the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. In addition, guests can give separate ‘subscores’ in crucial areas, such as location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value for money and free Wi-Fi. Note that guests submit their subscores and their overall scores independently, so there’s no direct link between them.
You can review an Accommodation that you booked through our Platform if you stayed there or if you arrived at the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, please contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialise in detecting fake reviews submitted to our Platform. If we find any, we delete them and, if necessary, take action against whoever is responsible.
Anyone else who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team, so our Fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we would publish every review we receive, whether positive or negative. However, we won’t display any review that includes or refers to (among other things):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out, and we may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old – or if the Accommodation has a change of ownership.
An Accommodation may choose to reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (what language a review is in, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). If you like, you can sort and/or filter them (by time of year, review score, etc.).
We sometimes show external review scores from other well-known travel websites. We make it clear when we’ve done this.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly without limiting expression of strong opinions. They are also applicable regardless of the sentiment of the comment.
Contributions should be travel related. The most helpful contributions are detailed and help others make better decisions. Please don’t include personal, political, ethical, or religious commentary. Promotional content will be removed and issues concerning Booking.com’s services should be routed to our Customer Service or Accommodation Service teams.
Contributions should be appropriate for a global audience. Please avoid using profanity or attempts to approximate profanity with creative spelling, in any language. Comments and media that include 'hate speech', discriminatory remarks, threats, sexually explicit remarks, violence, and the promotion of illegal activity are not permitted.
All content should be genuine and unique to the guest. Reviews are most valuable when they are original and unbiased. Your contribution should be yours. Booking.com property partners should not post on behalf of guests or offer incentives in exchange for reviews. Attempts to bring down the rating of a competitor by submitting a negative review will not be tolerated.
Respect the privacy of others. Booking.com will make an effort to obscure email addresses, telephone numbers, website addresses, social media accounts, and similar details.
The opinions expressed in contributions are those of Booking.com customers and properties and not of Booking.com. Booking.com does not accept responsibility or liability for any reviews or responses. Booking.com is a distributor (without any obligation to verify) and not a publisher of these comments and responses.
By default, reviews are sorted based on the date of the review and on additional criteria to display the most relevant reviews, including but not limited to: your language, reviews with text, and non-anonymous reviews. Additional sorting options may be available (by type of traveller, by score, etc.).

Verified reviewits right next to the ocean
no privacy, when you use the balcony,there is a common area right underneath and you can here people gathering there and loud voice so no privacy at all.while in your room you can clearly here people walking above,i think it due to the materials used to build this building.

Verified reviewThe location and parking excellent. The breakfast was okay for price should have a bigger variety! Also location and rooftop and pool area great! Room very clean. Water pressure in shower not so good but served its purpose was hot but very weak pressure for bathing. Also wish chairs for beach were included in motive of room.
Water pressure in shower not so great! Parking very tight. Beach chairs not included in price for connivence. Breakfast okay but should have real food like waffles bacon eggs toast. No elevator have to walk 4 flights of stairs with luggage etc. I’ve only available on lower level.

Verified reviewWe absolutely loved the location. Close enough to restaurants and shops to walk, but far enough that you don't hear the "noise" in town. The facility was beautiful and the proximity to the beach was perfect for families with children that want to bounce between the pool and the beach. The staff was friendly and accommodating. The other guests were very pleasant and mostly considerate of "quiet times". We stayed in a "dune view" room, which was nice to be able to jump out of the pool and grab snacks or items for the kids quickly.
My only complaint was the size of the bathroom. There wasn't a ton of space and the toilet was basically against the wall, and toilet paper holder was pretty much on your lap. Seems silly, but it was more annoying than anything. I'm aware this is a preference thing, so this has no influence on my "scoring" of the overall facility, and could have just been the room we were in.

Verified reviewGreat location with easy access to the beach and surrounding restaurants and shops.
The only thing we didn't like was the rule of not being allowed outside on the property past 9 PM. It would be nice to sit out by the pool or rooftop terrace on a nice evening at the price we paid per night. On day 3 it seemed they allowed people to relax and have a glass of wine on the terrace. Maybe the staff decided to allow those who were respectful and quiet and monitor for noise. We enjoyed listening to the waves, talking and relaxing on those evenings.

Verified reviewWe really enjoyed the lounge on the 4th floor. It felt like a cruise ship. The ability for my 82 yo mother to enjoy the water without having to go to the beach was awesome.
The beds are very squeaky. They made noise when moving or getting in or out.

Verified reviewWe have been coming to the Atlantic View Hotel for many years and enjoyed it. It is now better than ever! The patio has been newly furnished and extended. There are fire pits to keep you warm on a cool night. Comfortable lounges are also available for family and friends to enjoy their meals together with relaxed conversations. Beautiful yellow umbrellas are over the chaise lounges with a towel provided at the pool. The first floor rooms have added privacy and views of the natural grasses and flowers has been enhanced. The rooms have been modernized with large walk in showers and pocket doors. The beds are incredibly comfortable. The room balcony now has a counter table. Cold and hot breakfasts are provided as well as savory and sweet treats, iced tea and alcoholic beverages in the evening. Everything has been updated from the inside out. The staff is welcoming and helpful. The accessibility to the beach is excellent with towels and chairs provided. The entrance to the hotel lobby has been enhanced by a ramp and automatic doors. The parking lot now has electric car chargers and a beautiful wooden fence and lighting. The Atlantic View Hotel is aesthetically very pleasing and is a wonderful getaway destination.
The property is great.
Thank you so very much. We are very proud of the renovations. Come see us again! - Kris

Verified reviewView!! Bed, cleanliness, friendly staff.
Sink not in bathroom, no microwave, refrigerator very small.
Thank you, Gail. Our staff works very hard here to make guests happy, so we appreciate the recognition of them very much! We have had requests for microwaves; we are looking into a solution. You are not alone in your request for those, thank you for weighing in. The refrigerator is small due to the limited size of the room; unfortunately a larger fridge would be too cumbersome in the rooms. Thank you, and we look forward to seeing you again!

Verified reviewThe oceanfront location was great & large rooftop deck was a great place to hang out.
No elevator was annoying as our room was on the top floor. The bathroom in the room was so tiny that it was hard to move around & close the door. Breakfast could have been better stocked.
