Home away from home
We get around easily being located near subway and shopping area too. The manager in charge was very helpful and informative. The room is sizeable for 2z what I like most is each room have its own toilet.. it gives you a cosy feeling of a home away from home feeling.

Great value for the price.
A great value for the price. If you're a single traveler on a budget like I was, you can't go wrong with Hostel Vanilla. I was especially happy for the laundry service and extra soap bars. The surrounding neighborhood (Dongdaemun station) doesn't have much for tourists in my opinion, but with Seoul's excellent public transportation it's not a big deal. It's also very close to Cheonggyecheon, which was great for running early in the morning.
