Converted Sheraton Cavalier Client

The staff and service were fantastic 10/10. I usually stay next door at the Sheraton, but will stay here from now on. Beds are very comfortable and rooms were great with a living room. Even toiletries were top shelf l’occitane. Plus the incl breakfast with made to order eggs was really good.
