TJ is Service Excellence

Our company planned our conference at Sheraton Norfolk Waterside Hotel. While the hotel was clean and staff was friendly, I want to recognize TJ with PMC (Valet). He was patient, kind and professional in helping me. I rule appreciate you!

Thank you to the entire Sheraton staff! I would definitely stay again!

Your staff deserves better from your corporate team.
Cons:

Slow data rates, unsecure connections, the ISP provides a terrible security infrastructure rendering the IT layers provided completely useless. The food quality was comparable to any cheap complimentary service, but priced at discounted restaurant rates.
