You might want to have the dealer check your A/C system for the hissing noise, but the water you see is probably the condensation coming from the A/C evaporator in the right front of the car. All cars leave a little water puddle under the car when the A/C has been running and then the car is parked. It is the moisture the A/C has pulled from the hot air - the more humid the ambient air is, the more condensation you'll get from the car's A/C evaporator. It looks like the floor of the parking garage is on a slope, otherwise the puddle of water would be under the car, and you'd never notice it.

Agreed. Normal to have water under the A/C compressor.

The water is from the a/c. Of course, you can verify by running on ECO for a while and the drips will stop.
