    The visit was a special treat for my son who had just turned 10! Trademark Hotel made his birthday even more special, from a welcome birthday cake; a card signed by the Guest Relations Manager, one signed from me and 3 complementary tickets for activities at the Village Market! This was way beyond what we expected and am truly grateful! Also, the view from the room was amazing!
