Complaining about the noise when staying in Midtown Manhattan is like complaining about the fog in San Fransisco, or having too much French Bread in Paris. The noise is part of the experience in being in "the city" Downtown Manhattan is considered more like a suburb to most New Yorkers, it's dead, too quite, you want noise and action stay in midtown.
