Such a wonderful place!! Eric at the reception gave me a warm welcome and showed me around the place and even helped carry my bags up two floors, Lukas and Silvia too were so helpful with anything that I needed and so friendly, The place is spic and span. And you can always go to the kitchen and help yourself to tea, coffee, milk, bread, cornflakes, etc. The bus stop is just outside and the Coop too. Walking distance to landmarks like the Royal Yacht Britannia, Leith waterside, etc. The name befits the place - I truly felt I had visited my friend's house!!

We loved every minute of our stay at JustB Edinburgh, the breakfast was out of this world and the people made us feel like we are at home. One of the best places we stayed at during our tip to UK! Well done to them!!!

Perfect location to use as base. Excellent and reasonably priced restaurants and bars within walking distance. Spacious and very comfortable rooms - we even had a small table with chairs in the room. We appreciated the coffee, tea and small instant breakfast that was provided. Small fridge was a bonus. Friendly and helpful hosts.

1. The hotel is well-organized, offering daily cleaning services every morning. 2. The host is very thoughtful and hospitable, providing fruits and breakfast bread. 3.

Location is fantastic with an easy bus ride into the main core. Beds were easily the comfiest we had of our entire trip! Kate was such a wonderful host, helping us with figuring out how to traverse the city. I cannot understate how amazing everyone was to us! Thank you so much for making our stay fantastic!

It was overall lovely! Everyone was very welcoming and if you need anything, they are super helpful and nice! My room was beautiful, quite big and comfortable. Breakfast was tasty and thommy is always there for a friendly and informative chat! I felt very much at home! Just as information (nor at all a criticism): the place has a lot of stairs and steps. If you have mobility difficulties, this might not be the right fit. But otherwise I fully recommend this place. I would (and hopefully will) book this again every time!

It's a very clean, tidy and cozy place. The transportation is convenient. There are convenience stores and restaurants nearby. Due to the flight, we arrived very early. The hotel took care of our luggage and allowed us to check in early after everything was settled. Everything was great! If I come to Edinburgh again, I will still choose to stay here!

The guest house was in a great location. Next to the bus station, 5 minutes away from Waverley station. Our room was clean with firm comfy beds, exactly as we requested. Murray, our host, was helpful and polite, and looked after us so well. Our room had a great view from the windows. The breakfast was lovely. The rooms were quieter than I had expected given the location.

Good guest house that provides the comfort you expect on a city trip. Good location in a nice and quiet neighborhood. Public transport available in the area and the city centre a reasonable twenty minutes walk away. Friendly management.

Breakfast was terrific and was a bespoke breakfast, cooked to order. Nothing was too much trouble and the food was plentiful. All staff - Dave, Ian, Stephen and Jane- were welcoming and helpful and accommodated individual requests. It's a couple of miles from city centre, but this makes it a quiet location and there is a bus stop directly opposite the guesthouse with regular buses into the centre.

Mayfair Guest House is really well located, just minutes from the Balfour Street tram stop. The room was spacious and had everything we needed including tea/coffee and towels. I had my apprehensions about sharing a bathroom, but the downstairs bathroom was really clean. The host was welcoming when we arrived and showed us where things were. The room was also very quiet. I would recommend this to travellers who are looking for somewhere comfortable and don't mind that it is basic.
