Gina and La Gemma are exceptional! I cannot say enough about "La Gemma": it is clean, comfortable, convenient, and well located. Gina goes out of her way to make you welcome and to help you settle in. The apartment has everything you need, but it is also located within walking distance of excellent restaurants, the water, and interesting sight seeing. I HIGHLY recommend La Gemma! The spiral staircase is a bit tricky, and I only mention it if you are traveling w/ elderly or really young children. It was not a problem for me, and my elderly parents were able to handle it, but it was a bit challenging. Well worth it in my opinion, but I thought I would mention it in case others are traveling w/ parents/young ones. Go to La Gemma- you won't regret it!
