    Liked : The owner was very kind and proposed to buy some food for me at 3 different times as I arrived late in the evening and was just in transit for a night each time. The studio is very big, with all what we need and very clean. I recommend especially if you are in transit as it's near the airport !!!
    The price is really good also.

    Liked : Miss B was fantastic and gave us a very warm welcome. Gave us complimentary bottled water and biscuits. It was quite sufficient as it was extremely warm. The bedding was clean and comfy. It was very basic but homely and had all we needed for a restful night's stay. We relied on frequent public transport which was frequent and inexpensive. If you're travelling on a budget Jem Gems is for you.I wouldn't hesitate to stay again
