What Our Guests Say

If you set your expectations low. It's okay. Rooms tiny. Service lacking. (Except the bar. They were attentive and great) the other hidden gem is Maggie's (connected to PV) pool wasn't opened for Memorial day. Again. There are better places

While our room was nicely updated and the bathroom was just cleaned and the bed clearly was just made, and was clean and comfortable, the rest of the room was not cleaned. There was ALOT of sand on the entire floor, as well as the table and the two chairs next to the table. The balcony is rusty and the wood floor has green moss/algae growing on it and the outside AC unit cover was rusted out and dripping condensation. The bottom of the curtain was very dirty, as well. The overall look of the hotel is old and the hallways and steps to get to the rooms are VERY dirty. I did not hear or see a vacuum cleaner or cleaning crew during our entire 4 day stay. I am from NJ and very used to old shore motels and hotels, but I was expecting more from Pleasant View Inn. The hotel common areas and rooms need to be properly cleaned. It was unacceptable, really. That being said, the front desk personnel were very nice and helpful, and free coffee is always appreciated.The view from our Queen Ocean View Room was beautiful, although we were not comfortable sitting out on the aforementioned rusty balcony. Luckily the weather was cloudy and rainy, so we didn't miss that part. Honestly, due to the condition and cleanliness of the hotel, we did not want to eat at the restaurant, so I can't provide a review of the food, but the bartenders were both very friendly and made great drinks. Both were females, although I cannot remember their names. I got a discounted rate by booking thru a 3rd party. If I had paid the normal rate, I would not have been happy and would have complained to management. The booking rate is way too high for the condition and cleanliness of this hotel and, unfortunately, I would never recommend this hotel in it's current condition.

The location can’t be beat—right on the ocean with beautiful views and easy access to the beach. Unfortunately, the standard room was disappointing. It felt like a room in a basement, had no windows, and smelled strongly of mildew. We ended up paying an extra $30 to move to a room with a window and fresh air. For such a great setting, the accommodations fell short of expectations.
