Simple with a great location!

This place was simple but clean. The location really can’t be beat. There were minor things, like we didn’t love the barn door on the bathroom as it provides no real privacy but we made it work. There are no bells and whistles to this place but it’s a fantastic location to crash and spend the day at the beach with the perk of a very walkable neighborhood.

The only problem we had was the noise level inside the room from the upstairs guest. The walls and ceilings had not much noise insulation so that was the issue.

Never stay or recommed Pacific view

We arrived to our hotel at 2:50pm we noticed a lady at the customer counter but the door locked and it said out to lunch till 3pm So we went and sat on a bench close by. My dauggters and I really needed to use the restroom so as soon a 3pm hit we ran towards the door. It was still locked so I assumed maybe the other door was the one we needed to go through. Well as soon as I went in the lady looked at me as if I really disturbed her. She said uhhhhh HI .... kind of with a upset tone. She did say welcome or anyhing just starred at us. I asked her if we'd be able to check in early and she said only if your room is ready. She checked on the computer and said no its not ready. I said okay and asked if we can please use the restroom to which she relplied ; no we dont have any you would need to go use the public one available by the beach. There was many homless people camping by the restrooms. Me and my daugters went back to sit on the benches looking to see if we can cancel this room a looking into getting one with atleast parking and more friendly staff. 20 minutes pass and she seen us sitting and said your room is now ready. Once we went to get keys. I wouldn't stay here again. We didnt feel welcomed and when we left it felt awkward. When we were taling our bags down to the car the cleaning lady said YOU LEAVING?

Great stay

Unbeatable location. Some upgrades to bathroom (shower curtain, tiling) are in order but overall it was very comfortable, clean, and easy to check in. We love staying in this area. The bed was VERY comfortable and great water pressure!

The room was nice. Bed was very uncomfortable and very squeaky. There was people above us stomping around the whole entire night which was really the down side to this stay. The walls are THIN. The being on the beach though was great so it was good for just the singular night we were there. There is only 4 parking spaces for the whole hotel which is a little odd, but luckily I did get one. I would stay here for a single night again, but request the top floor.

You walk out the door and immediately there’s a miniature park and you go a little farther down in the beach is there. Everything’s just beautiful and quaint.

Clean but nothing special

The service was wonderful!!! Very nice help at the front desk. VERY Accommodating and helpful and professional. The property is lacking many amenities that help make a stay enjoyable. No parking. No ice machines. No rugs on the cold floors. Hot water takes MANY minutes to come to faucet. Security Lighting in the windows makes it very difficult to sleep. No baggage carts. I would recommend staying ONLY if you want nothing special, but a clean property with very nice people.

Party scene so beware

Great getaway for my husband and I, keep in mind there are young college kids all around so it’s loud. We had a weekend stay and the room next to us had partygoers, which we didn’t mind. They were loud and were drunk but staying in PB we knew what we were getting into. Next time if we want a quiet stay we will go to La Jolla. But room was very nice and clean, perfect for our stay and next to many restaurants.

Perfect Minnesota winter escape

My sister and I loved our stay at Pacific View Inn! It was exactly what we were looking for during our two day stay in San Diego. It was steps away from the beach, and only a few more steps to food, beverage, shopping, and convenience items. The complimentary beach towels, chairs, and umbrellas were a pleasant surprise, and the table and chairs outside of our room offered a sunny warm spot to sit and relax while not on the beach. Esmeralda was helpful and friendly, and I especially loved being asked upon check in if we would need housekeeping service the following morning. We all need to do our part to save the environment, and I appreciate an eco friendly property.
