Our unit looked down at the pool and was nice and quiet. Check in is not until 4 pm which is only a problem if you arrive in town early. The Sonder building does not have bag storage on site and should you need to store a bag you'll have to do it an Uber ride away at a great sporting goods store that participates in a program called Vertoe. If your aim is to hang out on Broadway and you don't have a car the Ubers can add up, but you'll still come out ahead.
