Fun place for your lunch hour
This "mall" is pretty decent if you are like me and work on the subway line. They have this crazy little store that sells discount perfume and Cover Girl cosmetics, a bakery booth that sells coconut bread (if you haven’t tried this before YOU MUST - its to die for, I am a carb lover!) Fairweather, Mendocino, Smart Set, La Senza, HMV, Jacob and a few other places that are worth a brouse if you have a TTC pass and want to go for a walk.
Need suits? You need Suzy!!
For years I've bought my suits here for work (ever since University), wonderful fit and such great prices I highly recommend. ** You may not always find a suit you love every season but there will be one eventually. I too have gone through seasons of disappointment but they always win me back. Ps, I've been talked into buying the Prestige card 2x now over the years when I make a large purchase, I really don't recommend it since I don't feel it is an all-season store and I’ve never used it twice in one year, just for occasional basics but that’s just a tip from my experience.
HORRIBLE, HORRIBLE SERVICE!!! Never...
1st time was fine 2005 not pleasant but got the job done. Booked our honeymoon 2008 spent $4000 with Cathy Hedderwick again and I had to do all the work and she still charged us the standard $50 fee, what did we pay her for?? We had to research all cruises on our own time, we had to find one that fit our schedule, I had to call carnival for our past guest number - all this should have been researched by her, she should have provided some help because I can call a 1800# much faster than going through this horrible 3rd party!!! I told her multiple times it is our honeymoon make sure we get something - I clearly wrote this in a e-mail advising there must be something for free, a gift of any size a cake, a $10 bad bottle of wine ANYTHING IS BETTER THAN NOTHING!! I was very, very clear about this and my dad who is a long term client of theirs also reiterated make sure she gets something, she agreed but did nothing. Marlin Travel did nothing and neither did Carnival. I will never use this...

Marlin Travel did nothing and neither did Carnival. I will never use this company again and recommend other people do not. I even got the same price as calling Carnival directly but with horrible service and fees. I didn’t even save money and I did all the leg work!!! I told Cathy how disappointed I was, she did not address any of my concerns, did not even pretend to rectify the poor service by acting nice just sent a standard email that fees are normal. Sure, if you got off your ass that would have been just dandy!! DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY!!!

I actually was trying to find a place to write a review about my travel agent and I found this review and was compelled to write something in return. My Parents now myself, have been working with Cathy for many years and have had amazing service and she has gone above and beyond for my whole family. She is very knowledgeable about many destinations and I would recommend her to anyone!!! When reading the review above I beleive (in my opinion) she was wanting a freebie, really who wants a "$10 bottle of bad wine" anyways? We have spent well over $4000 and never expected a freebie from Cathy just her expertise. We will continue booking trips with Cathy and PLEASE I stress this do not listen to the above review.
Thanks

Kathy made no suggestions, booked the exact same room I FOUND FIRST for the same price, did not help me with transportation at all on this trip or the one I booked in 2005 with her. When you spend $5000 on a vacation, it’s your honeymoon and Kathy promises free things PROMISES – THEN YES, I EXPECT TO BE REWARDED with a crappy bottle of wine or $7.95 cake Carnival sells since it’s the gesture I was looking for NOT THE VALUE!! Travel agencies are about service and my experience with this person was garbage, luckily my honeymoon was the best time ever thanks to my planning since I received NO ASSISTANCE.

I am a Markville fan by proximity; a born, raised and as of 2007 home-owning Markham girl and this mall has gone through A LOT of changes since it was built in 1981 and I came into this world in ’82 :)
Most recently they’ve added some more upscale stores such as Banna Republic, BCBG and RW&Co – a nice change of pace and attracts good cliental. I’m a deal hunter by nature but I love how they keep expanding and improving with the times.
