Long stay at Fullerton

We stayed for 9 weeks at this house in Fullerton. It is in a great location, only a few kilometres to the city. The place itself is cozy. Great kitchen with everything you need, comfortable beds, lovely bathroom with an amazing shower, washer/dryer and undercover parking. Definitely worth every penny.
