                         CRI HOTEL INCOME PARTNERS, L.P.

                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                             June 30, 2008 and 2007

                                   (Unaudited)


1.   BASIS OF PRESENTATION

     In the opinion of CRICO Hotel Associates I, L.P. (the General Partner), the
accompanying unaudited financial statements reflect all adjustments,  consisting
of normal recurring accruals, necessary for a fair presentation of the financial
position of CRI Hotel Income  Partners,  L. P. (the  Partnership) as of June 30,
2008,  and the  results of its  operations  for the three and six month  periods
ended June 30, 2008 and 2007 and its cash flows for the six month  periods ended
June 30, 2008 and 2007. The results of operations for the interim  periods ended
June 30, 2008, are not necessarily  indicative of the results to be expected for
the full year.

     The  accompanying  unaudited  financial  statements  have been  prepared in
conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America (US GAAP) and with the instructions to Form10-Q. Certain information and
accounting  policies and  footnote  disclosures  normally  included in financial
statements  prepared in conformity  with US GAAP have been  condensed or omitted
pursuant to such instructions.  These condensed  financial  statements should be
read in conjunction with the financial  statements and notes thereto included in
the Partnership's annual report on Form 10-KSB at December 31, 2007.

     The Partnership and the chief operating decision maker consider the hotels'
operations as a single homogeneous  business activity as it relates to achieving
their  objectives  of cash  flow  growth  and  capital  appreciation.  The chief
operating  decision  maker  reviews  cash  flow  and  operating  results  in the
aggregate in order to determine the appropriate level of cash available, if any,
for  distribution  to  the  investors  in  the  Partnership.   Accordingly,  the
Partnership  considers  itself to  operate  in a single  reportable  segment  in
accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 131.


2.   LONG-LIVED ASSETS

     The Partnership reviews long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or
changes in  circumstances  indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not
be fully recoverable. Recoverability is measured by a comparison of the carrying
amount of an asset to the estimated future  undiscounted net cash flows expected
to be generated by the asset.  If an asset were  determined to be impaired,  its
basis would be adjusted to fair value through the  recognition  of an impairment
loss.


3.   WORKING CAPITAL RESERVE

     The working  capital  reserve of $1,916,424  and  $1,582,408 as of June 30,
2008  and  December  31,  2007,  respectively,  represents  all  cash  and  cash
equivalents  maintained as working  capital for the  Partnership.  In accordance
with the terms of the Partnership Agreement,  the working capital reserve may be
increased or reduced by the General Partner as it deems appropriate.

                                   (Unaudited)


4.   CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS AND REAL ESTATE TAX RESERVES HELD BY SERVICER

     In addition  to the monthly  loan  installments  under the former  mortgage
loan, as discussed below,  through May 1, 2008 the Partnership also made monthly
payments which were escrowed for capital improvements (CIR) and estimated annual
real estate taxes.  The monthly CIR payment  totaling $19,365 was held in escrow
to be drawn on by the Partnership for ongoing capital  improvement  expenditures
and for the replacement of furniture,  fixtures and equipment at the hotels. The
real estate tax payments for annual  taxes and  assessments  to be levied on the
hotels was  estimated  as $32,655 per month.  The servicer of the loan paid such
taxes and assessments when due from these escrows.  Both the CIR and real estate
tax  payments  were due on the same day as the monthly  principal  and  interest
installments.  On May 6, 2008,  the  Partnership's  mortgage loan was refinanced
with the proceeds of four separate loans.  The Partnership will pay directly for
real estate taxes and capital improvements.

     During the six month periods ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, the  Partnership
made escrow deposits aggregating $77,458 and $116,187, respectively, for capital
improvements, and $130,622 and $193,210, respectively, for estimated annual real
estate taxes.  As of June 30, 2008, and December 31, 2007,  the former  servicer
held reserves of $0 and $197,736  respectively,  for capital improvements and $0
and  $117,849,   respectively,  for  real  estate  taxes.  The  Partnership  was
reimbursed by the former servicer in June 2008 for the remaining balances in the
escrowed CIR and real estate tax accounts.


5.   MORTGAGES PAYABLE

     On December 19, 1997, the Partnership refinanced with Citicorp Real Estate,
Inc. (Citicorp) the Zero Coupon Notes which were originally issued in connection
with the  Partnership's  acquisition of the hotels.  The loan matured January 1,
2008. On that date, a balloon  payment in the amount of  $7,273,441  became due.
The General  Partner was unable to refinance  the  Partnership's  mortgage  debt
prior to its maturity.  Although the loan was in default,  the special  servicer
agreed to a forbearance  agreement for a period of 180 days in consideration for
payment of a fee in the amount of $72,734.41,  and continued monthly payments of
principal,  interest (at the pre-default rate) and tax and capital  improvements
escrows.

     On May 6, 2008, the  Partnership  closed three loans from General  Electric
Credit Corporation ("GE") in the aggregate amount of $5,000,000 to refinance the
Plymouth and Roseville  hotels in Minnesota and the Clearwater hotel in Florida.
The three loans are  cross-collateralized  by the three hotels.  The Partnership
used the loan  proceeds  together  with the proceeds of a loan from  Remediation
Capital Funding, LLC in the amount of $2,900,000 secured by the University hotel
in Minnesota, to pay off the existing debt in full.

     The Phase I  environmental  study of the  University  hotel  required by GE
revealed excess levels of three chemicals deemed hazardous in the groundwater on
the property.  The  contamination  is not due to acts or omissions of the hotel.
Simultaneously  with  its  refinancing   efforts,   the  Partnership  engaged  a
consultant to enroll the University  property in the Minnesota Pollution Control
Agency's ("MCPA")  Voluntary  Investigation and Cleanup ("VIC") Program and deal
with the  contamination  at the site. The  Partnership's  goal is to obtain a No
Action  Letter  with a Covenant  Not to Sue, at which point it should be able to


                                       -6-

                                   (Unaudited)

obtain  conventional  financing on the property again.  NOVA, the  Partnership's
consultant, has prepared and submitted an additional Phase I study in accordance
with  the  guidelines  established  by  the  MPCA-VIC  Program  along  with  the
application  and proposed scope of work for the required Phase II study. On July
16, 2008,  the MPCA approved the work plan for the Phase II with samples of soil
and ground water scheduled to begin collection for analysis August 11, 2008. The
Partnership  has been advised that the VIC Program process will likely take from
six months to eighteen months.

     The three  new GE loans  bear  interest  at the rate of 6.79% per annum and
mature on January 1, 2016 with balloon payments due as set forth below:

                      Plymouth         $887,269
                      Roseville        $2,083,122
                      Clearwater       $887,269

     The new loan with Remediation Capital bears interest at the rate of 14% per
annum and matures on May 6, 2009,  although the  Partnership  has two options to
extend the loan for six months each time. It is contemplated that this loan will
be refinanced after the  environmental  issues at the University hotel have been
resolved.

     The Partnership has determined that the carrying value of the current loans
approximates fair value based on its market rate of interest.  The fair value of
the Partnerships long-term debt is estimated using a discounted cash flow model.
The  primary  inputs  into the model  are  market  interest  rates for debt with
similar  characteristics and an adjustment for the Partnerships own credit risk.
The credit risk component of the valuation varies depending on the specific debt
being   issued   since   the   Partnership   may  issue   debt  with   different
characteristics.

     The Partnership  made  installments  of principal and interest  aggregating
$363,999 and $402,294  for the six month  periods  ended June 30, 2008 and 2007.
The  Partnership's  aggregate  balance on the current loans was $7,400,000 as of
June 30, 2008. The Partnership's balance on the former loan was $7,273,441 as of
December 31, 2007.


6.   DISTRIBUTIONS TO BAC HOLDERS

     A distribution  in the amount of $221,597  ($0.25 per BAC) was declared and
paid to BAC holders of record and to the General  Partner for the first  quarter
of 2007 in the amounts of $217,165 and $4,432,  respectively.  A distribution in
the amount of $221,598  ($0.25 per BAC) was  declared and paid to BAC holders of
record, to the General Partner and to the state of Minnesota for withholding for
the  second  quarter  of 2007 in the  amounts of  $212,021,  $4,432 and  $5,145,
respectively.  A  distribution  in the  amount of  $221,597  ($0.25 per BAC) was
declared and paid to BAC holders of record and to the General Partner and to the
state of Minnesota for  withholding for the third quarter of 2007 in the amounts
of $212,020, $4,432 and $5,145, respectively.  The Partnership did not declare a
distribution  for the fourth quarter of 2007 or the first and second quarters of
2008.

7.   COMMITMENTS

     a.   Hotel Management Agreements
          ---------------------------

          The  Partnership  entered into  management  agreements  with Bryanston
     Group  d/b/a  Buckhead  Hotel  Management   Company,   Inc.  (Buckhead)  in
     connection with operation of the hotels. The management  agreements,  which
     were extended  during 2001 to expire  between  November 2007 and July 2008,
     provide  for  a  base  management  fee  of  3.5%  of  gross  revenues  from
     operations. The management agreements also call for a marketing fee of 1.5%
     of net room  revenues,  a  reservation  fee of 2.3% of gross  revenues from
     rental of hotel guest rooms,  and an  incentive  management  fee  generally
     equal to 25% of net cash flow  available  after payment of a preferred cash
     flow return to the Partnership equal to 11% of the aggregate purchase price
     for hotels  owned by the  Partnership.  No incentive  management  fees were
     earned for either of the three or six month periods ended June 30, 2008 and
     2007. As the respective contracts expired, the Partnership entered into new
     management  contracts  with Oak Hotels,  Inc. under  substantially  similar
     business  terms.  The new contracts will expire December 31, 2016, with the
     exception of Scottsdale  which is coterminous  with the land lease on which
     that hotel is located.

     b.   Lease Agreements
          ----------------

          The Partnership  assumed an existing lease agreement from Days Inns of
     America,  Inc. in connection with the acquisition of the leasehold interest
     in the Scottsdale Days Inn. The assumption  transfers the rights to operate
     the property on the lease's  existing  terms over the remaining life of the
     lease.  In October  2002,  the lease was extended to expire on December 31,
     2008. There were no further extensions provided in the lease agreement, but
     the Partnership has signed a short term extension through December 31, 2009
     until the ground lessor  decides to re-develop  the property.  Annual lease
     payments  are equal to the greater of $140,450 or 22% of total room revenue
     and 2.5% of food and beverage  revenue.  Minimum lease  payments of $11,704
     are payable monthly with a quarterly analysis of the actual amount due. For
     the three month periods ended June 30, 2008 and 2007,  lease  payments were
     $137,610 and $158,483,  respectively.  For the six month periods ended June
     30, 2008 and 2007, lease payments were $420,008 and $452,255, respectively.

     c.   License Agreements
          ------------------

          The five License Agreements  pursuant to which the hotels are operated
     as Days Inns have recently  been  assigned  from the current  licensee (and
     former management  agent),  Buckhead Hotel Management  Company,  Inc. d/b/a
     Bryanston Group,  Inc., to the Partnership as Licensee.  The business terms
     remained identical.


8.   GROUND LEASE AGREEMENTS

     The Partnership  had leased a portion of the Minneapolis  Days Inn property
to Vicorp Restaurants, Inc. (Vicorp), which operated a Baker's Square restaurant
on the  property.  Gross  rental  income  pursuant to the lease  agreement  with
Vicorp,  which is  included  in interest  and other  income in the  accompanying
statements of  operations,  was $0 and $18,424 for the three month periods ended
June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively,  and $12,712 and $36,847 for the six month

periods  ended June 30, 2008 and 2007,  respectively.  As of March 2008,  Vicorp
failed  to pay  the  monthly  rent  due.  On  April  3,  2008,  Vicorp  declared
bankruptcy.  It rejected the lease as an executory contract as of that date. The
Partnership has engaged a broker to locate a new tenant for the space.

     The  Partnership  leases an  adjacent  building on the  Roseville  Days Inn
property to India Palace, Inc., which operates a restaurant on the property. The
lease expires on September 30, 2010. The lease provides one option to extend the
lease for an additional period of five years.  Gross base rental income pursuant
to the lease  agreement  with India Palace and the former lease with Happy Chef,
which is included in interest and other income in the accompanying statements of
operations,  was $7,500 and $15,000 for each of the three and six month  periods
ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively.

     CRI Hotel Income Partners, L.P.'s (the Partnership) Management's Discussion
and Analysis of Financial  Condition and Results of Operations  section is based
on the financial  statements,  and contains  information  that may be considered
forward  looking,  including  statements  regarding  the effect of  governmental
regulations.  Actual results may differ  materially  from those described in the
forward  looking  statements  and  will be  affected  by a  variety  of  factors
including  seasonality  with respect to the hotel  industry,  national and local
economic  conditions,   the  general  level  of  interest  rates,   governmental
regulations  affecting the Partnership and interpretations of those regulations,
the  competitive   environment  in  which  the  Partnership  operates,  and  the
availability of working capital.

                             Travel and the Economy
                             ----------------------

     The hotel  industry in the second  quarter 2008 is  continuing  to feel the
effects of a sagging economy with decreased demand and lower occupancies,  which
had a negative  impact at two of the five hotels owned by the  Partnership.  The
Partnership's ability to pay operating expenses and current liabilities,  and to
pay distributions to BAC holders, is primarily dependent upon the performance of
the underlying  hotels.  The General Partner is currently unable to estimate the
impact  the  future  state  of the  economy  could  have  on  the  Partnership's
operations, liquidity, or capital resources.

                                  Distributions
                                  -------------

     A distribution  in the amount of $221,597  ($0.25 per BAC) was declared and
paid to BAC holders of record and to the General  Partner for the first  quarter
of 2007 in the amounts of $217,165 and $4,432,  respectively.  A distribution in
the amount of $221,598  ($0.25 per BAC) was  declared and paid to BAC holders of
record, to the General Partner and to the state of Minnesota for withholding for
the  second  quarter  of 2007 in the  amounts of  $212,021,  $4,432 and  $5,145,
respectively.  A  distribution  in the  amount of  $221,597  ($0.25 per BAC) was
declared and paid to BAC holders of record and to the General Partner and to the
state of Minnesota for  withholding for the third quarter of 2007 in the amounts
of $212,020, $4,432 and $5,145, respectively.  The Partnership did not declare a
distribution  for the fourth quarter of 2007 or the first and second quarters of
2008.

                          Financial Condition/Liquidity
                          -----------------------------

     The  Partnership  expects that the hotels in the  aggregate  will  generate
sufficient cash flow to achieve a positive cash flow after  operating  expenses.
In addition to the periodic  replacement  of fixed assets,  the General  Partner
determined  several years ago that certain capital  improvements  were needed to
enhance the  marketability of the hotels.  Since 1997, the Partnership  funded a
total of  approximately  $2.5  million from the working  capital  reserve to the
hotels for such capital improvements.

     The Partnership's  liquidity and future results of operations are primarily
dependent upon the performance of the underlying hotels. Hotel operations may be
materially  affected by changing market conditions and by seasonality  caused by
variables such as vacations, holidays and climate. The General Partner continues
to work  closely  with the  hotels'  manager to pursue an  aggressive  marketing
campaign and stricter  cost-cutting  and  cost-control  measures in an effort to
maintain liquidity at the hotels.

     For the six month  period  ended June 30,  2008,  net cash  provided by the
hotel's operating activities and existing cash resources was adequate to support
investing and financing  requirements.  The Partnership  anticipates that future
cash flows from the hotels'  operations  and  existing  cash  resources,  in the
aggregate,  will be sufficient to pay operating  expenses,  accounts payable and
accrued  expenses,  and hotel  trade  payables.  Accounts  payable  and  accrued
expenses  and hotel  trade  payables at June 30, 2008  totaled  $741,368,  which
represents a $185,543  decrease  from  December 31, 2007.  Accounts  payable and
accrued expenses decreased primarily due to lower audit fees payable,  partially
offset by increases in real estate taxes payable. Hotel trade payables decreased
compared to December 31, 2007, primarily due to the timing of payments.

Financing
- ---------

     On December 19, 1997, the Partnership refinanced with Citicorp Real Estate,
Inc. (Citicorp) the Zero Coupon Notes which were originally issued in connection
with the  Partnership's  acquisition of the hotels.  The loan matured January 1,
2008. On that date, a balloon  payment in the amount of  $7,273,441  became due.
The General  Partner was unable to refinance  the  Partnership's  mortgage  debt
prior to its maturity.  Although the loan was in default,  the special  servicer
agreed to a forbearance  agreement for a period of 180 days in consideration for
payment of a fee in the amount of $72,734.41,  and continued monthly payments of
principal,  interest (at the pre-default rate) and tax and capital  improvements
escrows.

     On May 6, 2008, the  Partnership  closed three loans from General  Electric
Credit Corporation ("GE") in the aggregate amount of $5,000,000 to refinance the
Plymouth and Roseville  hotels in Minnesota and the Clearwater hotel in Florida.
The three loans are  cross-collateralized  by the three hotels.  The Partnership
used the loan  proceeds  together  with the proceeds of a loan from  Remediation
Capital Funding, LLC in the amount of $2,900,000 secured by the University hotel
in Minnesota, to pay off the existing debt in full.

     The Phase I  environmental  study of the  University  hotel  required by GE
revealed excess levels of three chemicals deemed hazardous in the groundwater on
the property.  The  contamination  is not due to acts or omissions of the hotel.
Simultaneously  with  its  refinancing   efforts,   the  Partnership  engaged  a
consultant to enroll the University  property in the Minnesota Pollution Control
Agency's ("MCPA")  Voluntary  Investigation and Cleanup ("VIC") Program and deal
with the  contamination  at the site. The  Partnership's  goal is to obtain a No
Action  Letter  with a Covenant  Not to Sue, at which point it should be able to
obtain financing on the property again.  NOVA, the Partnership's  consultant has
prepared  and  submitted  an  additional  Phase I study in  accordance  with the
guidelines  established by the MPCA-VIC  Program along with the  application and
proposed  scope of work for the required  Phase II study.  On July 16, 2008, the
MPCA  approved  the work plan for the Phase II with  samples  of soil and ground
water  scheduled  to  begin   collection  for  analysis  August  11,  2008.  The
Partnership  has been advised that the VIC Program process will likely take from
six months to eighteen months.

     The three  new GE loans  bear  interest  at the rate of 6.79% per annum and
mature on January 1, 2016 with balloon payments due as set forth below:

                Plymouth         $887,269
                Roseville        $2,083,122
                Clearwater       $887,269

     The new loan with Remediation Capital bears interest at the rate of 14% per
annum and matures on May 6, 2009,  although the  Partnership  has two options to
extend the loan for six months each time. It is contemplated that this loan will
be refinanced after the  environmental  issues at the University hotel have been
resolved.

     The Partnership has determined that the carrying value of the current loans
approximates fair value based on its market rate of interest.

     The Partnership  made  installments  of principal and interest  aggregating
$363,999 and $402,294  for the six month  periods  ended June 30, 2008 and 2007.
The  Partnership's  aggregate  balance on the current loans was $7,400,000 as of
June 30, 2008. The Partnership's balance on the former loan was $7,273,441 as of
December 31, 2007.

Capital Improvements and Real Estate Tax Reserves Held by Servicer
- ------------------------------------------------------------------

     In addition  to the monthly  loan  installments  under its former  mortgage
loan, as discussed  above, the Partnership also made monthly payments which were
escrowed for capital improvements and estimated annual real estate taxes. During
the six month periods ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, the Partnership  made escrow
deposits   aggregating   $77,458  and   $116,187,   respectively,   for  capital
improvements, and $130,622 and $193,210, respectively, for estimated annual real
estate  taxes.  As of June 30, 2008 and  December 31,  2007,  the servicer  held
reserves of $0 and $197,736,  respectively, for capital improvements, and $0 and
$117,849,  respectively,  for real estate taxes. This loan was refinanced on May
6, 2008. The  Partnership was reimbursed by the former servicer in June 2008 for
the  remaining  balances in the escrowed CIR and real estate tax  accounts.  The
Partnership will pay directly for real estate taxes and capital improvements.

Working Capital Reserve
- -----------------------

     The working  capital  reserve of $1,916,424  and  $1,582,408 as of June 30,
2008  and  December  31,  2007,  respectively,  represents  all  cash  and  cash
equivalents  maintained as working  capital for the  Partnership.  In accordance
with the terms of the Partnership Agreement,  the working capital reserve may be
increased or reduced by the General Partner as it deems appropriate.

Distributions to BAC Holders
- ----------------------------

     A distribution  in the amount of $221,597  ($0.25 per BAC) was declared and
paid to BAC holders of record and to the General  Partner for the first  quarter
of 2007 in the amounts of $217,165 and $4,432,  respectively.  A distribution in
the amount of $221,598  ($0.25 per BAC) was  declared and paid to BAC holders of
record, to the General Partner and to the state of Minnesota for withholding for
the  second  quarter  of 2007 in the  amounts of  $212,021,  $4,432 and  $5,145,
respectively.  A  distribution  in the  amount of  $221,597  ($0.25 per BAC) was
declared and paid to BAC holders of record and to the General Partner and to the
state of Minnesota for  withholding for the third quarter of 2007 in the amounts
of $212,020, $4,432 and $5,145, respectively.  The Partnership did not declare a
distribution  for the fourth quarter of 2007 or the first and second quarters of
2008.

                       Results of Operations - Partnership
                       -----------------------------------

     The  Partnership  recognized net loss for the three month period ended June
30,  2008,  compared  to net  income  during the  corresponding  period in 2007,
primarily  due to  decreases  in gross  operating  income and interest and other
income and  increased  unallocated  operating  expenses,  partially  offset by a
decrease in interest expense.  Gross operating income decreased primarily due to
lower rooms  revenue as a result of lower  occupancy.  Interest and other income
decreased  due to lower rates in 2008 and the  cessation of rent  payments  from
Vicorp  on  the  University  restaurant  lease.  Unallocated  operating  expense
increased  primarily due to increased  general and  administrative  expenses and
professional fees. General and administrative  expenses increased  primarily due
to higher  reimbursed  payroll costs and property taxes paid by the  Partnership
for  the  Baker's  Square   restaurant.   Professional  fees  increased  due  to
refinancing expenses and higher legal fees in 2008.

     The  Partnership's net income for the six month period ended June 30, 2008,
decreased  compared  to June  30,  2007  primarily  due to  decreases  in  gross
operating  income and interest and other income,  as stated above, and increased
unallocated  operating  expenses,  partially  offset by lower interest  expense.
Unallocated  operating expenses increased  primarily due to increases in general
and  administrative  expenses,  property  tax  expense  and  professional  fees,
partially offset by a decrease in property operations and maintenance  expenses.
General and administrative expenses increased primarily due to higher reimbursed

payroll costs and the  forbearance  fee.  Property tax expense  increased due to
higher  tax  rates.  Professional  fees  increased  as  stated  above.  Property
operations and maintenance expenses decreased due to fewer repairs needed to the
hotels.

     The General  Partner is not able to predict the future trend of hotel gross
operating  income,  especially  rooms revenue as it is affected by occupancy and
average  daily rate.  The General  Partner  continues  to work  closely with the
hotels' manager to contain any increase in unallocated operating expenses.

     An analysis of each hotel's  operating  results for the three and six month
periods ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, follows.

                         Results of Operations -- Hotels

Operating statistics
- --------------------

     The  hotels'   results  of  operations  are  affected  by  changing  market
conditions  and by seasonality  caused by variables such as vacations,  holidays
and climate.  Based on the hotels' operating budgets and historical  trends, the
following  months  should  provide the highest net cash flow to the  Partnership
from each of the hotels.

     The hotels'  results of  operations  set forth below may not be  consistent
with longer-term historical trends.

     The  Partnership's  statements of operations  include operating results for
each of the hotels as summarized below.  Gross Operating Income represents total
revenue from rooms, rental and other, telephone, and food and beverage, less the
related  departmental  expenses.  Operating  Income  represents  Gross Operating
Income less unallocated operating income and expenses. The results of operations
and average  occupancy  for the hotels for the three and six month periods ended

Clearwater,  Florida:  Gross operating income and operating income for the three
month period ended June 30, 2008  decreased  compared to 2007,  primarily due to
decreases in rooms revenue,  telephone  revenue and rental and other revenue and
increases in telephone  expense and  property tax expense,  partially  offset by
decreases in rooms expense, rental and other expense, general and administrative
expenses,  marketing expense,  energy expense,  repair and maintenance expenses,
management fees and insurance expense. Occupancy decreased due to loss of a high
rated non-repeating aerotech group in April 2007.

Minneapolis,  Minnesota:  Gross  operating  income and operating  income for the
three month period ended June 30, 2008 increased compared to 2007, primarily due
to higher  rooms  revenue,  telephone  revenue and rental and other  revenue and
decreases in rental and other expense,  general and administrative  expenses and
marketing  expense,  partially  offset by increases in rooms expense,  telephone
expense,  energy expense,  repair and  maintenance  expenses,  management  fees,
insurance  expense and property tax expense.  Occupancy  decreased due to market
demand.

Plymouth,  Minnesota:  Gross operating income and operating income for the three
month period ended June 30, 2008  increased  compared to 2007,  primarily due to
increases  in rooms  revenue and  telephone  revenue and  decreases in telephone

marketing expense, partially offset by a decrease in rental and other income and
increases in rooms expense,  energy expense,  repair and  maintenance  expenses,
management fees, insurance expense and property tax expense. Occupancy increased
as a result of more production from corporate groups.

Roseville,  Minnesota: Gross operating income and operating income for the three
month period ended June 30, 2008  decreased  compared to 2007,  primarily due to
decreases in rooms revenue,  telephone  revenue and rental and other revenue and

month period ended June 30, 2008  decreased  compared to 2007,  primarily due to
decreases in rooms revenue,  food and beverage  revenue,  telephone  revenue and

Part I. FINANCIAL INFORMATION
Item 4. Controls and Procedures

     In July  2008,  representatives  of the  Managing  General  Partner  of the
Partnership  carried out an  evaluation of the  effectiveness  of the design and
operation of the Partnership's  disclosure controls and procedures,  pursuant to
Exchange Act Rules  13a-15 and 15d-15.  The  Managing  General  Partner does not
expect that the  Partnership's  disclosure  controls and procedures will prevent
all error and all fraud.  A control  system,  no matter how well  conceived  and
operated,  can provide only  reasonable  assurance  that the  objectives  of the
control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the
fact that there are resource  constraints,  and the benefits of controls must be
considered relative to their costs.  Because of the inherent  limitations in all
control systems,  no evaluation of controls can provide absolute  assurance that
all control issues have been detected.  These inherent  limitations  include the
realities that judgments in  decision-making  can be faulty, and that breakdowns
can occur  because  of simple  error or  mistake.  The  design of any  system of
controls also is based in part upon certain  assumptions about the likelihood of
future  events,  and there can be no  assurance  that any design will succeed in
achieving its stated goals under all  potential  future  conditions.  Over time,
controls may become inadequate  because of changes in conditions,  or the degree
of compliance  with the policies or procedures may  deteriorate.  Because of the
inherent  limitations in a cost-effective  control system,  misstatements due to
error or fraud may  occur and not be  detected.  Based on such  evaluation,  our
principal  executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that
as of June 30, 2008,  our disclosure  controls and procedures  were effective to
ensure that (i) the  information  required to be  disclosed by us in the reports
filed or submitted by us under the Securities  Exchange Act of 1934, as amended,
was  recorded,  processed,  summarized  or  reported  within  the  time  periods
specified in the SEC's rules and forms and (ii) such information was accumulated
and communicated to management,  including our principal  executive  officer and
principal  financial  officer,  to allow  timely  decisions  regarding  required
disclosure.  In  addition,  there  have  been  no  significant  changes  in  the
Partnership's  internal  controls over financial  reporting that occurred during
the Partnership's most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is
reasonably likely to materially affect, the Partnership's internal controls over
financial reporting.


Part II. OTHER INFORMATION
Item 5. Other Information

a.   There has not been any information  required to be disclosed in a report on
     Form 8-K during the quarter ended June 30, 2008, but not reported,  whether
     or not otherwise required by this Form 10-Q at June 30, 2008.

b.   There is no established market for the purchase and sale of BACs,  although
     various  informal  secondary  market  services  exist.  Due to the  limited
     markets,  however,  investors may be unable to sell or otherwise dispose of
     their BACs.

                             Registered Tender Offer
                             -----------------------

     On April 2, 2007,  MacKenzie  Patterson Fuller L.P. and numerous affiliated
entities (MacKenzie)  initiated a registered tender offer to purchase all of the
outstanding BACs at a price of $12.50 per BAC. The offer expired on May 4, 2007.
MacKenzie is not affiliated  with the  Partnership or the General  Partner.  The
price offered was determined  solely at the discretion of MacKenzie and does not
necessarily  represent  the fair  market  value of each BAC.  In response to the
MacKenzie  registered tender offer, on April 11, 2007, the General Partner filed
a Schedule  14D- 9. In that filing,  the General  Partner  recommended  that BAC
holders  reject the  MacKenzie  offer because the offer price was far lower than
MacKenzie's own estimated  liquidation  value of the Partnership and it believed
that current BAC holders  could realize that  difference in value  themselves by
choosing  to  hold  their   investments   for  several   more  years  until  the
Partnership's assets are liquidated.

     A number of investors have sold their BACs to other investors. If more than
two percent of the total outstanding BACs are transferred due to sale in any one

Item 5. Other Information - Continued

calendar year (not counting certain exempt transfers),  the Partnership could be
taxed  as  a  "publicly  traded   partnership,"   with  potentially  severe  tax
implications for the Partnership and its investors. Section 7704 of the Internal
Revenue Code defines the term "publicly  traded  partnership" as any partnership
for federal income tax purposes, the interests of which are readily traded on an
established  securities market, or readily tradable on a secondary market or the
substantial  equivalent thereof. If the Partnership is classified as a "publicly
traded  partnership"  or otherwise fails to qualify as a partnership for federal
income tax  purposes  in any taxable  year,  it would then be subject to federal
income tax on any  taxable  income in that  taxable  year at  regular  corporate
rates.  A BAC  holder  could  not  then  take  into  account  the  BAC  Holder's
distributive  share of the  Partnership's  income and would be subject to tax on
the BAC holder's  share of the  Partnership's  income to the extent  distributed
either as  dividends  out of current or  accumulated  earnings and profits or as
taxable  gain in excess of the tax basis of the  investor's  BACs.  A BAC holder
could also have to file amended  income tax  returns.  If the  Partnership  were
taxed as a corporation, the BAC holder's cash flow, return on investment and the
value of the investor's BACs would be  significantly  reduced.  Also, the income
and  losses  from the  Partnership  would no  longer  be  considered  a  passive
activity.

     From January 1, 2007 through April 29, 2007, the Partnership  received sale
transfer requests for approximately 2.0% of the outstanding BAC's.  Accordingly,
to remain  within the two percent safe  harbor,  effective  April 30, 2007,  the
General  Partner halted  recognition of any transfers that would exceed the safe
harbor limit through  December 31, 2007.  As a result,  transfers of BACs due to
sale transactions were not recognized by the Partnership  between April 30, 2007
and December 31, 2007. The Partnership's  unaffiliated transfer agent, Registrar
& Transfer Company,  informed the General Partner in late January,  2008 that it
had processed sale transfers in excess of four percent of the  outstanding  BACs
in early January, 2008. Accordingly, the General Partner instructed the transfer
agent to halt all further sale transfers for the rest of 2008.  The  Partnership
sought an opinion  from its tax counsel  that it is "more  likely than not" that
there would be no adverse tax consequences to the Partnership in connection with
exceeding the safe harbor limitation in 2008. In supplying information requested
in  connection  with the  opinion,  the General  Partner  became  aware that the
percentage  of trades  significantly  exceeded  the safe  harbor  in 2006,  when
Treasury  Regulations  applicable  to the  Partnership  reduced  the safe harbor
amount from five percent to two percent,  and in 2007, when a re-calculation  of
the  non-exempt  transfers  reflected  a total  transfer of 2.21%.  However,  if
transfers in connection with known tender offers are not counted, the percentage
of sale transfers is reduced to well under two percent.  The  Partnership's  tax
attorneys  issued an opinion to the effect  that the  transfers  pursuant to the
tender  offers  were not the type of  regular  and  ongoing  trading  activities
contemplated  as  constituting  public  trading and that  therefore  it was more
likely  than not that such  trading  would not result in the  Partnership  being
treated as a publicly traded partnership under Section 7704. However,  there can
be  no  assurance  that  the  Internal  Revenue  Service  will  agree  with  the
Partnership's  position  and take no  action  to treat it as a  publicly  traded
partnership.
