Evan was a great host and was communicated with us making sure the check in was smooth and asking us if we needed anything. We did not realize it was right next to a hostel and it sounds like there are not usually any noise issues but for us we had 2 nights they would not go in the house after 11pm and the voices felt like they were in our living room. The location is great as we walked to Little Italy every day and even over to the gas lamp district. Evan is a great host!!!!!!
