Spicer Hall Dorm Reviews at Akron

My room itself is good, I have a shared single and its been great. However, the floor I live on has a bunch of screaming students at all hours of the day. I think it has something to do with the fact that Spicer has a lot of athletes, so they are all friends and talk really loudly and scream in the hallway.

Currently, I'm a third year student majoring in nursing and have lived in Spicer hall my entire duration here. My experience helped me build relationships with others in the same major as me. The actitives that are hosted in this building, allows you to build bonds.

Spicer was on the edge of campus so it was always a long walk to class. One time, the day before winter break, may car was vandalized in the East Deck parking garage on Spicer Street (I don't fault the dorm or the university, but there were no cameras in the garage). Other than that, the hall is right next to the rec center and stadium and is close to the restaurants on Exchange Street. The rooms are good and the events run by the housing board were enjoyable. I never had any issues with neighbors or staff.

I would say that Spicer is the perfect dorm hall for freshman students. There is a convenience store that is right across the main residence building. I should also mention that this hall is right next to the football stadium. It's not uncommon to hear the band practicing or a football game.

my experience staying at Speiser Hall at the University of Akron has been nothing but great. The location has been a convenience to me considering the fact that it is not too far from the football stadium and most of my classes. I love that we get our own bathroom that me and my roommate just share overall I would highly recommend this dorm

Kinda far from everything on campus but definitely one of the better dorms to live in! Maintenance staff does a good job of making sure everything is in working order and the Residence Hall staff is always super nice and super supportive.
