Before reading this book, I hadn’t considered how or why Prohibition happened.

Having just finished William Grimes’ Appetite City, I am now into Last Call: The Rise and Fall of Prohibition by Daniel Okrent. Opened in 1891, the Holland House closed within a month of Prohibition taking effect. 17, 1920, was the Holland House, located on Fifth Avenue at Thirtieth Street. Thanks for reading this far and making it to the end.Prohibition claimed many victims in New York City, among them the city’s most famous restaurant, Delmonico’s, which closed in 1923, as well as other well-known establishments of the time such as Shanley’s, Murray’s and Moquin.īut among the first to close its doors after the Eighteenth Amendment took effect on Jan. 1, Joe’s Pizza, etc.) than below them - Catching the sunset from the Battery is a great experience - The nearest subway stations to the Sonder are Rector Street (1 ) and Bowling Green (4/5) - There’s also a hop on/ hop off bus stop by Battery Place for those who are new to the city and want an easy way to get to the major tourist spots. For one thing, less homeless persons seem to make it down to the southern tip of Manhattan - George’s serves great breakfasts with a side of classic pop and new wave from the 80/90s - A greater variety of good cheap eats can be found above Fulton/ World Trade Center (e.g. Location notes: - At the time I was there, Battery felt safer (especially at night) than midtown. (I wish Sonder did have an option for solely a bedsheet change). If you want your room cleaned you can book a cleaning through the app for an extra charge or do it yourself. At least it doesn’t turn into a soapy mess after a single use - There is no housekeeping. I looked for (Tide) pods but didn’t see any - I wish the bath soap offered as part of the toiletries was larger. The pool was closed - The Sonder’s lobby seems to share elevators with the Nyack College next door - There is a cabinet in the lobby where guests can replenish at least some of their room consumables (e.g. However, the tables and chairs were not clean when I visited. That having been said, as others have noted, the Battery Park Sonder does have a doorman on duty at all times - The view from the rooftop lounge/pool/open space is pretty nice.

The Sonder app gives you the room number and door code two days prior to the start of your stay. I could also watch the sunset from my room - The mattress and pillows were comfortable and I had no real trouble falling asleep Other notes: - There is no check-in to speak off. I could see Battery City and the west side highway from my window.

The hallway contained two closets, the full kitchen, the washer/dryer, and the door to the toilet/bath - Thankfully, my room view was not blocked by the building next door.

WiFi speed was fine - The configuration of the room is that of an L, with a long hallway leading to the bedroom proper.

I had no problem streaming Netflix from my device to the TV at 1080p (HD). I wish the TV’s screen size and resolution were larger and cable and broadcast channels also available. You get your entertainment by streaming from your personal devices and subscriptions (e.g. There are no broadcast or cable channels.

Notes regarding the room’s hard inventory: - All the dishes and cups are oven and microwave safe (I asked, through the app, because I wasn’t sure) - The tub has a no slip surface.( I would have preferred separate shower and tub or just a shower if I cannot have both) - While the room has printed instructions on how to operate the oven/microwave combo and other appliances, I still found myself going to the internet to find the instruction manual for the oven/microwave - What amounts to the room’s dining/working table is pretty tiny - The TV was a somewhat older model.

It was very clean, the design was contemporary, and also fully stocked as advertised - full size refrigerator, washer and dryer, combo oven/microwave, dishwasher, shower/tub, queen sized bed, side tables, a seating area, good towels, toiletries, hangers, pots and pans, utensils, plates, trash bags, pods, etc., etc. Did a two week stay early October 2021 in a studio booked directly through the Sonder app.
