Hospitality Inn sold
Sidhivinayak LLC recently purchased the 192-room Hospitality Inn and Suites hotel at 4400-88 S. 27th St., Milwaukee, from Graebner Enterprises Inc. for $6.95 million. The sale was brokered by Ronald McCord and Jennifer Church of Oconomowoc-based Milmark Hotel/Motel Investments LLC, a real estate firm specializing in the sale and evaluation of hotel and motel properties. The property consists of two buildings, a five-story building at 4488 S. 27th St., which has 81 rooms and was built in 1989, and a 2-3 story building at 4400 S. 27th St., which has 111 rooms and was originally built in 1961, and later expanded. The property, including both buildings, has an assessed value of $6 million, according to city records. Sidhivinayak LLC, an investors group led by Illinois hotel investor Magan Patel, plans to renovate the buildings, Church said. Patel could not be reached for comment. One of the buildings will be converted into a Rodeway Inn & Suites, Church said. Rodeway Inn is a brand of Silver Spring, Md.-based Choice Hotels International Inc. "I believe the 2 to 3-story building (will be converted to a Rodeway Inn & Suites), because people identify the five-story structure with Hospitality Inn," Church said.
