| Generally, you have to prove damages, which you are obviously able to do. Then you have to prove why you believe the Sheraton is responsible for those damages.
So, the first thing you should ask yourself, is how was the hotel negligent? Then, in what way did their negligence contribute to your unfortunate situation?
What standard of care would be expected from other hotels which is not practiced by this Sheraton? (For example, if they never installed lights in their parking area)
Does the hotel offer valet parking to their guests and was your car parked in the valet parking area by one of the hotel's employees?
If you were parked in the general guest parking area which is open to the public, did you notice any signs posted advising guests that they are not responsible for theft of property or damages to vehicles parking in their lot?
Do they have any security cameras in the parking area which may have captured the incident on video?
