My wife and I stayed at Gem's place for 2 nights and we highly recommend it. Gem's house is very clean and inviting, her attention to detail is unbelievable. Gem's recommendations for Cork and the surrounding areas were spot on. This is a great place to stay if you have a car as parking is free and right in Gem's driveway. Breakfast was delicious and plentiful each morning. The bus into the city center is right across the street and a quick ride. Do yourself a favor and stay at Gem's!
