Race Hall is a popular residence option for freshmen, offering a suite-style living arrangement with private bathrooms, a kitchenette, and a common area shared with suite mates. Located conveniently within two blocks of other dorms and recently renovated, it features modern amenities like a personal thermostat with AC and heating, and an added layer of security at the front entrance. Students find the living spaces cozy and clean, complete with a fridge and a lounge area. Despite smaller individual bedrooms, the ample common space compensates for this, creating an inviting atmosphere for new students. However, Race Hall is known as the "party dorm," often bustling with activity on weekends, which can make signing in guests a time-consuming process. While the dorm promotes close friendships within suites, it might be challenging to mingle with others on the floor unless efforts are made. The high-rise floors offer stunning views of the Philadelphia skyline, adding to the appeal of Race Hall as a vibrant and modern living space.
