Well those crafty goons at Sheldon’s have a new page up that has info on the auction of the hotel. Now I don’t want to call anyone a liar but this statement from the Beloit Daily News article “Ramada will be sold at auction” makes me want to:

“I want to stress the fact the hotel is not closing,” Chowdhury said. “That’s what people are saying. I think they misunderstand the word auction. Someone buys it and will keep it open.”

Well yes it does appear that people misunderstand the word auction. Here is a blurb found on the auction page:

ATTENTION BUYERS! This property is also an excellent alternative use candidate that could offer untold upside potential. The hotel could easily be converted to a senior or assisted living facility, or utilized as low income housing. Please check the local zoning ordinance to determine which alternative uses conform to the current zoning.

Plus the fact that a header right after the date says “An Outstanding Hotel/Alternative Use property!” The exclamation point is theirs folks. This makes me think that the bank doesn’t give a shit who buys us for what.

So maybe Hotelblues.com will one day close up. No hotel no website. My muse is the hotel. I realized that a long time ago. Well if it does close I say a party is in order.
