The hotel was within steps of the beach! They also had beach chairs, towels, and umbrellas available to use at no charge. The rooms are simple and clean and the staff were friendly.

Perfect locale -but desperately needs improvements

This little motel is in a great location on pacific beach. Everything else is bare bones and minimal. It’s perfect to be steps from the boardwalk/lots of restaurants and the beach. Bad- The rooms on their web site and hotels.com are old photos and thus we thought we were getting a little couch to sit but only uncomfy wicker chairs. Room is small. No mirror other than in bathroom/no full length mirror. No place to hang dresses or anything other that a short coat. Linens and towels were not super clean. Lots of stains on towels and the felt blankets were dirty. They say housekeeping every 3 days. We were there 4 days and nothing for housekeeping. When we asked for extra linens we were given the minimum amount like it was a bother. Never got a new bath mat. We were on our way out but they said we had to take the towels to our room ourselves. We tried to email them 3 times before our arrival and never heard back. The fire pit is a nice concept- but no cushions and we’re told it couldn’t be on when they aren’t there- they leave the office at 9pm- so not ideal. The bathroom barn door/ sliding door didn’t close and doesn’t provide proper privacy. All in all- it’s a cheap simple motel but perfect for beach enjoyment and access.

There was no hand soap in the bathroom so we asked the front desk for soap and a blanket and they never brought it. No parking at the hotel so you have to find a spot in the housing track and walk

The Pacific View Inn was a great place to stay on PB. Great location to a variety of restaurants and bars. The view was beautiful from our room. Accommodations were very nice and the girls at the front desk were very helpful.

This property was a huge disappointment!! I paid for an upgrade to get a partial ocean view balcony and I didn’t receive it. I received a ground level parking lot view. Alice at the front desk was wonderful but the other woman that was there was miserable!! Not only is there NO parking you have to reserve one of about 4 spots. Their website says ‘limited parking’ NOT that you have to reserve it!! The showers are OMG narrow!!! The shower curtain clings to you because it is so narrow!! I am sure they don’t clean them all that well - disgusting! It even clung to my 26 year old son who is about 6 foot 170 pounds so it is not because we are big fatties!!! The lay out of the room is weird and their placement of the TV made it difficult to see from both beds!! I would definitely look for a different place to stay!!!

Great little place! Parking was a little tricky, but you just have to be a little patient and look for spots on side streets within a short walk to the Inn. We will be back!
