What does "not very beautiful" means? Is it "beautiful but not great" or "so-so" or "ugly"?
I think this word's meaning changes before or after sentence, but how do you feel when you hear that word? (For example "The view from here is not very beautiful.")

It's a very polite way of saying that something/someone is unattractive.
With things, it means beat up, worn out, kind of damaged.
With people, it's usually means unattractive. Not necessarily ugly.

Technically, it means so-so. However, it is usually used to describe someone/something that is unattractive without being offensive.
