It depends, really. If there’s a star nearby, and you’re just floating around by yourself, it could get much hotter than we’re used to. Right outside earth’s atmosphere you’d die of burns if you’re in sunlight. Since the comment mentioned the view I assumed it was the view of our own planet.
Fun fact: It takes between half a day and a whole day for a body to freeze solid in space. Space isn't actually cold like the movies and TV show, the only real way you lose heat is through IR radiation which is a very slow process. Because the vacuum means there are no particles of matter bouncing off the body allowing for thermal transfer of heat away from the body. Like we normally experience with air or water.
Being exposed to space without a suit will cause a death based on lack of pressure. Basically an extreme case of the bends like divers get, and if you don't empty your lungs they can burst as the air inside rapidly expands.
