Item 2.01. Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.

On April 4, 2007, SPPR – BMI, LLC (“SPPR”), a single-purpose bankruptcy remote entity 99% owned by Supertel Limited Partnership (a limited partnership 97% owned by Supertel Hospitality, Inc.) and 1% owned by SPPR-BMI Holdings, Inc. (a wholly owned subsidiary of Supertel Hospitality, Inc.), acquired four hotels from Waterloo Hospitality, Inc. (“Waterloo”). The purchase price for the four hotels was $30,901,000. The hotels consist of: a Comfort Inn in Alexandria, Virginia; a Days Inn in Alexandria, Virginia; a Days Inn in Fredericksburg (South), Virginia; and a Days Inn in Shreveport, Louisiana. The four hotels are part of a six hotel portfolio that Supertel agreed to purchase from Budget Motels, Inc. and Waterloo. Supertel expects to complete the acquisition of the two remaining hotels, a Days Inn in Bossier City, Louisiana and a Days Inn in Fredericksburg (North), Virginia, on or about July 31, 2007. Supertel currently leases these two hotels.

The $30,901,000 purchase price for the four hotels was funded on April 4, 2007 by approximately $19.5 million of borrowings from Supertel’s existing credit facility with Great Western Bank and SPPR’s assumption of four loans with an aggregate outstanding principal balance of approximately $11.4 million. The Great Western Bank credit facility requires monthly interest payments, the principal balance is due and payable on February 22, 2009 and the facility bears interest at prime minus .75%.  The assumed loans require monthly principal and interest payments based on a 22 year amortization (which commenced in February 1998), the principal balance is due and payable on March 1, 2020 and the loans bear interest at 7.375%.

Item 2.03. Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.
