Gem has welcomed by brother and his wife during their stay in Cork as I unfortunately lacked the room myself. They had a ball ! Gem was very accommodating to their late arrival, which was greatly appreciated. The stay went very well, all equipment was available ( including a very fancy coffee machine ) with personal touches like home made bread at breakfast that did not go unnoticed ( thanks for the recipe ). The location is perfect for visiting Cork city and surroundings, so don't hesitate and come and stay at Gem's !
