10/10 Excellent

"Loved our stay at the Fullerton, the rooms were clean & nice. The staff was absolutely amazing, from check-in to service in lounge… top notch! My only recommendations would be getting 2 queen sized beds (for families) instead of doubles and regular pillows instead of only 2 large pillows. And that’s not much of a complaint! Please keep up your great service and we will be sure to visit one of your establishments again!!! The Alsfords- Canada"
