                         CRI HOTEL INCOME PARTNERS, L.P.

                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                           September 30, 2009 and 2008

                                   (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 September
30, 2009, and the results of its operations for the three and nine month periods
ended  September 30, 2009 and 2008 and its cash flows for the nine month periods
ended  September 30, 2009 and 2008.  The results of  operations  for the interim
periods ended September 30, 2009, 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-K at December 31, 2008.

     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.


2.   NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

     On July 1, 2009, the Partnership  adopted  Financial  Accounting  Standards
Board Accounting Standards  Codification  ("ASC"),  which establishes the ASC as
the source of authoritative  accounting  principles to be applied in preparation
of  financial  statements  in  conformity  with US GAAP.  The  adoption  of this
standard did not have a material  impact on the financial  position,  results of
operations or cash flows.

     On January 1, 2009, the  Partnership  adopted the new  accounting  standard
which requires  adoption of the fair value standards in the ASC for nonfinancial
assets and nonfinancial liabilities. The adoption did not have a material impact
on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

     During the quarter  ended June 30, 2009,  the  Partnership  adopted the new
accounting  standard  which  requires  disclosure  regarding  the fair  value of
financial  instruments  for  interim  reporting  periods  as well  as in  annual
financial statements.

     The ASC  establishes a hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value as
follows:

     1.   Level 1 Inputs -- quoted prices in active markets for identical assets
          of liabilities.
     2.   Level 2 Inputs -- observable inputs other than quoted prices in active
          markets for identical assets and liabilities.
     3.   Level 3 Inputs -- unobservable inputs.

                         CRI HOTEL INCOME PARTNERS, L.P.

                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                           September 30, 2009 and 2008

                                   (Unaudited)


2.   NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS - Continued

     In  certain  cases,  the inputs  used to  measure  fair value may fall into
different  levels of the fair value  hierarchy.  In such cases,  for  disclosure
purposes,  the level within which the fair value  measurement  is categorized is
based  on  the  lowest  level  input  that  is  significant  to the  fair  value
measurement.

     Except  as  disclosed  in Note 6,  the  carrying  amount  of our  financial
instruments approximates their fair value.

     The ASC  establishes  general  standards of  accounting  and  disclosure of
events that occur after the balance sheet date but before the Partnership issues
financial  statements  or has them  available to issue.  The ASC defines (i) the
period after the balance sheet date during which a reporting entity's management
should evaluate events or transactions that may occur for potential  recognition
or disclosure in the financial statements, (ii) the circumstances under which an
entity should recognize events or transactions occurring after the balance sheet
date in its financial  statements,  and (iii) the  disclosures  an entity should
make about events or  transactions  that occurred  after the balance sheet date.
The guidance became effective for periods ending after June 15, 2009. Subsequent
events have been evaluated through November 13, 2009, which is the issue date of
the financial  statements.  The adoption of the guidance did not have a material
impact on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows.


3.   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.


4.   WORKING CAPITAL RESERVE

     The working  capital  reserve of $1,791,064  and $2,333,266 as of September
30, 2009 and  December  31,  2008,  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.

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

     In addition  to the monthly  loan  installments  under its former  mortgage
loan, as discussed  below, the Partnership also made monthly payments which were
escrowed for capital  improvements and estimated annual 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  capital
improvement  and  real  estate  tax  accounts.  Under  the  new  mortgages,  the
Partnership will pay directly for real estate taxes and capital improvements.

     During the nine month period ended September 30, 2008, the Partnership made
escrow deposits aggregating $77,458 for capital  improvements,  and $130,622 for
estimated annual real estate taxes. The Partnership was reimbursed by the former
servicer  in June  2008  for the  remaining  balances  in the  escrowed  capital
improvement reserve and real estate tax reserve.


6.   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 for payment of a fee
in the amount of $72,734, plus 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,  of which $500,000 is held by
the Lender pending  resolution of the  environmental  matter  further  discussed
below,  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 study  with  samples  of soil and
ground water  scheduled to begin  collection  for analysis  August 11, 2008.  On
January 28, 2009, NOVA completed the Phase II study. Based on the results of the
solvent,  petroleum, and RCRA metal impacts above action or guidance levels that
were detected in the soil, soil vapor and groundwater  samples  collected at the

site, with the exception of the petroleum impacts, the compounds detected at the
site  appear to be  associated  with  regional  up  gradient  off-site  areas of
contamination located to the northeast and possibly to the north of the site. It
does not  appear  that the  historical  uses of the site are the  source  of the
solvent,  soil vapor and  groundwater  impacts  detected  at the site.  NOVA has
submitted   these   results  and  requests  that  the  MPCA  issue  an  Off-Site
Determination  letter and No Further Action letter for the site. The Partnership
has been advised that the VIC Program  process will likely take from nine 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  matured on May 6,  2009.  On May 5, 2009,  the loan was  extended  to
mature November 5, 2009. The Partnership has one option, at its sole discretion,
to extend the loan for six  months.  It is  contemplated  that this loan will be
refinanced  after the  environmental  issues at the  University  hotel have been
resolved.

     The Partnership  made  installments  of principal and interest  aggregating
$653,681 and $583,020 for the nine month  periods  ended  September 30, 2009 and
2008. The Partnership's  balance on the loan was $7,248,694 and $7,341,231 as of
September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008, respectively.

     Considerable  judgment is necessary to estimate the fair value of financial
instruments.  Due to  current  limitations  on credit  availability  and  market
conditions,  the estimates of fair value  presented  herein are not  necessarily
indicative  of the  amounts  that  could be  realized  upon  disposition  of the
financial instruments. We estimate the fair value of our mortgages payable using
discounted  cash  flow  analysis,  unobservable  inputs,  and  other  internally
developed  estimates  that  incorporate  market-based  assumptions to range from
$3,500,000 to $4,000,000 for the Plymouth hotel,  Roseville hotel and Clearwater
hotel;  and  approximately  $2,400,000  for the  University  hotel loan based on
unobservable inputs.


7.   DISTRIBUTION TO BAC HOLDERS

     The Partnership did not declare a distribution in 2008 or the first, second
and third quarters of 2009.

8.   COMMITMENTS

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

          The hotels had been operated by Bryanston  Group,  Inc. d/b/a Buckhead
     Hotel  Management  Company,  Inc.  (Buckhead),  formerly known as Days Inns
     Management Company, Inc., under the nationally recognized franchise name of
     Days Inns. The Partnership  entered into new management  contracts with Oak
     Hotels,  Inc.,  which will  continue to be  operated as Days Inns.  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.
     The agreements  provide for a base management fee of 3.5% of gross revenues
     from operations for the University hotel,  Plymouth hotel,  Rosewater hotel
     and Clearwater hotel and 4.5% for the Scottsdale hotel.

     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.  The  Partnership  negotiated  and  executed a short  term  extension
     through December 31, 2010 until the ground lessor decides to re-develop the
     property.  As of February 1, 2009,  annual lease  payments are equal to the
     greater  of  $480,000  or 22% of total  room  revenue  and 2.5% of food and
     beverage  revenue.  Minimum lease  payments of $40,000 are payable  monthly
     with a  quarterly  analysis of the actual  amount due.  For the three month
     periods ended September 30, 2009 and 2008,  lease payments were $97,777 and
     $116,327, respectively. For the nine month periods ended September 30, 2009
     and 2008, lease payments were $402,018 and $536,335, 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, to the Partnership as Licensee.

     d.   Legal Proceedings
          -----------------

          On September 2, 2008, a complaint  was filed  against CRI Hotel Income
     Partners,  L.P., in the Circuit Court of the Sixth Judicial Circuit, in and
     for Pinellas County,  Florida.  The Plaintiffs  claimed damages of $15,000,
     exclusive  of  interest  and cost as a result  of being  bitten by bed bugs
     while  staying at the Days Inn  Clearwater  on or about July 16, 2008.  The
     complaint   was   submitted   to   Wausau    Insurance    Company,    Claim
     #PX415-008254-01.  On January 21,  2009,  the defense  counsel  retained by
     Wausau  requested  that the plaintiff  make a demand for settlement of this
     lawsuit so as to avoid  protracted  litigation.  A response  is expected in
     2009 to the  request.  Discovery  continues  and  the  defense  counsel  is
     handling  the  matter.  Any  damages  will be covered  by Wausau  under the
     hotel's insurance policy.

9.   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
statement of operations,  was $12,712 for 2008. 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.  It has filed a
proof of claim for its permitted damages in Vicorp's bankruptcy case.

     On June 22, 2009,  the  Partnership  executed a ten year lease with the Tea
House Restaurant to replace the old tenant at Baker's Square.  The lease has two
options to renew for five years each.  The base rent for years one through  five
is $100,700.  Rent commences on the first to occur of (i) 180 days subsequent to
the  possession  date which occurred on June 22, 2009 or (ii) the opening of the
premises for business to the general public.

     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 $22,500 for each of the three and nine month periods
ended September 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively.


10.  RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

     In accordance with the terms of the Partnership Agreement,  the Partnership
is obligated to reimburse the General Partner or its affiliates for their direct
expenses in  connection  with managing the  Partnership.  The  Partnership  paid
$46,167 and $145,218 for the three and nine month  periods  ended  September 30,
2009, respectively and $17,167 and $186,124 for the three and nine month periods
ended September 30, 2008, respectively. Such reimbursed expenses are included in
general  and   administrative   expenses  in  the  accompanying   statements  of
operations.

     In accordance with the terms of the Partnership Agreement,  the Partnership
is obligated to pay the General  Partner or its  affiliates an annual base asset
management fee (Management  Fee), equal to 0.50% of the weighted average balance
of the  adjusted  partnership  investment  during the period,  as defined in the
Partnership  Agreement.  The  Partnership  paid a Management  Fee of $23,438 and
$70,313 for each of the three and nine month  periods  ended  September 30, 2009
and 2008.

     C.R.I.,  Inc., the general partner of the General  Partner,  has contracted
with Capitol  Hotel Group,  Inc.  (CHG),  to perform  certain  asset  management
services  related to the  oversight  of the  operations  and  management  of the
hotels.  The  Chairman  and  President  of C.R.I.,  Inc.,  are the  Chairman and
President, respectively, of, and holders of 100% of the equity interest in, CHG.

11.  DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION

     Depreciation is based on the estimated  useful lives of depreciable  assets
using the straight-line method.  Salvage value has been incorporated relating to
the  Scottsdale  hotel.  The estimated  lives used in  determining  depreciation
follow.

        Type of asset                           Estimated life
        -------------                           --------------

        Building and site improvements          10-30 years
        Furniture, fixtures and equipment       7 years
        Leasehold improvements                  Shorter of estimated life
                                                  (usually 7 years) or
                                                  remaining lease term

     Property  purchase cost and  acquisition  fees are being  amortized  over a
thirty-year  period using the  straight-line  method,  except for the Scottsdale
hotel which is being amortized over the remaining  lease term. Loan  refinancing
costs are being  amortized  over the life of the loans  using the  straight-line
method, which approximates the effective interest method.


12.  CASH CONCENTRATION RISK

     Financial   instruments  that   potentially   subject  the  Partnership  to
concentrations  of risk consist  primarily of cash.  The  Partnership  maintains
fourteen cash accounts.  As of September 30, 2009, the uninsured  portion of the
cash balance was $0.

Part I. FINANCIAL INFORMATION
Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis
          of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

     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 is continuing to feel the effects of a sagging  economy
with decreased demand and lower occupancies,  which had a negative impact at all
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.

                          New Accounting Pronouncements
                          -----------------------------

     On July 1, 2009, the Partnership  adopted  Financial  Accounting  Standards
Board Accounting Standards  Codification  ("ASC"),  which establishes the ASC as
the source of authoritative  accounting  principles to be applied in preparation
of  financial  statements  in  conformity  with US GAAP.  The  adoption  of this
standard did not have a material  impact on the financial  position,  results of
operations or cash flows.

     The ASC  establishes  general  standards of  accounting  and  disclosure of
events that occur after the balance sheet date but before the Partnership issues
financial  statements  or has them  available to issue.  The ASC defines (i) the
period after the balance sheet date during which a reporting entity's management
should evaluate events or transactions that may occur for potential  recognition
or disclosure in the financial statements, (ii) the circumstances under which an
entity should recognize events or transactions occurring after the balance sheet
date in its financial  statements,  and (iii) the  disclosures  an entity should
make about events or  transactions  that occurred  after the balance sheet date.
The guidance became effective for periods ending after June 15, 2009. Subsequent
events have been evaluated through November 13, 2009, which is the issue date of
the financial  statements.  The adoption of the guidance did not have a material
impact on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

     During the quarter  ended June 30, 2009,  the  Partnership  adopted the new
accounting  standard  which  requires  disclosure  regarding  the fair  value of
financial  instruments  for  interim  reporting  periods  as well  as in  annual
financial statements.

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

     The Partnership did not declare a distribution in 2008 or the first, second
and third quarters of 2009.

                          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.

                                      -12-


Part I. FINANCIAL INFORMATION
Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis
          of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Continued


     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 institute an  aggressive  marketing
campaign and stricter  cost-cutting  and  cost-control  measures in an effort to
maintain liquidity at the hotels.

     For the nine month period ended September 30, 2009, existing cash resources
were adequate to support operating 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  September  30, 2009
totaled  $840,862,  which  represents a $42,254 increase from December 31, 2008.
Accounts payable and accrued expenses increased  primarily due to increased real
estate taxes  payable,  partially  offset by lower  accrued audit fees and lower
accrued  environmental study costs. Hotel trade payables decreased primarily due
to timing of payment compared to fourth quarter 2008.

     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.  The
Partnership  negotiated and executed a short term extension through December 31,
2010 until the ground  lessor  decides to re-develop  the property.  There is no
assurance  that the lease  will be  renewed.  Operating  (loss)  income  for the
Scottsdale  hotel was $(93,153) and $57,113 for the three and nine month periods
ended September 30, 2009.

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 for payment of a fee
in the amount of $72,734, plus 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,  of which $500,000 is held by
the Lender pending  resolution of the  environmental  matter  further  discussed
below,  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 study  with  samples  of soil and
ground water  scheduled to begin  collection  for analysis  August 11, 2008.  On
January 28, 2009, NOVA completed the Phase II study. Based on the results of the
solvent,  petroleum, and RCRA metal impacts above action or guidance levels that
were detected in the soil, soil vapor and groundwater  samples  collected at the
site, with the exception of the petroleum impacts, the compounds detected at the
site  appear to be  associated  with  regional  up  gradient  off-site  areas of
contamination located to the northeast and possibly to the north of the site. It
does not  appear  that the  historical  uses of the site are the  source  of the
solvent,  soil vapor and  groundwater  impacts  detected  at the site.  NOVA has
submitted   these   results  and  requests  that  the  MPCA  issue  an  Off-Site
Determination  letter and No Further Action letter for the site. The Partnership
has been advised that the VIC Program  process will likely take from nine 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  matured on May 6,  2009.  On May 5, 2009,  the loan was  extended  to
mature November 5, 2009. The Partnership has one option, at its sole discretion,
to extend the loan for six  months.  It is  contemplated  that this loan will be
refinanced  after the  environmental  issues at the  University  hotel have been
resolved.

     The Partnership  made  installments  of principal and interest  aggregating
$653,681 and $583,020 for the nine month  periods  ended  September 30, 2009 and
2008. The Partnership's  balance on the loan was $7,248,694 and $7,341,231 as of
September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008, respectively.

     Considerable  judgment is necessary to estimate the fair value of financial
instruments.  Due to  current  limitations  on credit  availability  and  market
conditions,  the estimates of fair value  presented  herein are not  necessarily
indicative  of the  amounts  that  could be  realized  upon  disposition  of the
financial instruments. We estimate the fair value of our mortgages payable using
discounted  cash  flow  analysis,  unobservable  inputs,  and  other  internally
developed  estimates  that  incorporate  market-based  assumptions to range from
$3,500,000 to $4,000,000 for the Plymouth hotel,  Roseville hotel and Clearwater
hotel;  and  approximately  $2,400,000  for the  University  hotel loan based on
unobservable inputs.

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

     In addition  to the monthly  loan  installments  under its former  mortgage
loan, as discussed  below, the Partnership also made monthly payments which were
escrowed for capital  improvements and estimated annual 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  capital
improvement  and  real  estate  tax  accounts.  Under  the  new  mortgages,  the
Partnership will pay directly for real estate taxes and capital improvements.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis
          of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Continued


     During the nine month period ended September 30, 2008, the Partnership made
escrow deposits aggregating $77,458 for capital  improvements,  and $130,622 for
estimated annual real estate taxes. The Partnership was reimbursed by the former
servicer  in June  2008  for the  remaining  balances  in the  escrowed  capital
improvement reserve and real estate tax reserve.

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

     The working  capital  reserve of $1,791,064  and $2,333,266 as of September
30, 2009 and  December  31,  2008,  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.

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

     The  Partnership  recognized  net loss for the  three  month  period  ended
September 30, 2009,  compared to net income at September 30, 2008  primarily due
to decreased  rooms revenue,  partially  offset by lower rooms expense both as a
result of lower occupancy.

     The  Partnership  recognized  net  loss  for the nine  month  period  ended
September  30, 2009,  compared to net income in 2008  primarily due to decreased
rooms revenue, as a result of lower occupancy,  partially offset by decreases in
rooms expense, general and administrative expenses,  marketing expense, property
and maintenance expenses and building lease expense. Rooms expense decreased due
to lower occupancy.  General and administrative expenses decreased primarily due
to the forbearance fee paid in 2008,  lower  reimbursed  payroll costs and lower
occupancy.  Marketing  expense  decreased due to lower payroll expense and lower
frequent guest program  expense.  Property  operations and maintenance  expenses
decreased  due to less  repair  needed due to lower  occupancy.  Building  lease
expense decreased due to lower revenues at the Scottsdale Days Inn.

     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 nine month
periods ended September 30, 2009 and 2008, follows.

                         -------------------------------

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.

                   Three Month Period Ended September 30, 2009
                   -------------------------------------------

Clearwater,  Florida:  Gross  operating  income  decreased  and  operating  loss
increased for the three month period ended September 30, 2009,  compared to 2008
primarily due to decreased  rooms revenue and increased  repair and  maintenance
expenses,  partially  offset by decreases in rooms expense,  telephone  expense,
rental  and  other  expense,  general  and  administrative  expenses,  marketing
expense,  energy expense,  management fees,  insurance  expense and property tax
expense.  Occupancy  decreased  due to the  sluggish  economy and a  significant
decrease in the housing and construction markets.

Minneapolis,  Minnesota:  Gross  operating  income and operating  income for the
three month period ended  September 30, 2009,  decreased from 2008 primarily due
to  decreases  in rooms  revenue  and rental  and other  revenue  and  increased
insurance expense, partially offset by increased telephone revenue and decreases
in rooms expense, rental and other expense, general and administrative expenses,
marketing expense, energy expense,  repair and maintenance expenses,  management
fees and property tax expense. Occupancy decreased due to market demand with the
largest shortfall in the transient  market,  offset by increases in hotel direct
business, mainly due to the new University of Minnesota football stadium.

Plymouth,  Minnesota:  Gross operating income and operating income for the three
month period ended September 30, 2009,  decreased compared to 2008 primarily due
to decreases in rooms  revenue,  telephone  revenue and rental and other revenue
and increases in telephone expense,  insurance 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 and management  fees.  Occupancy  decreased due to the
economy and lack of production  from some long term  corporate  groups,  and the
room nights generated by the Republican National Convention in 2008.

Roseville,  Minnesota: Gross operating income and operating income for the three
month period ended September 30, 2009,  decreased compared to 2008 primarily due
to decreases in rooms  revenue,  telephone  revenue and rental and other revenue
and increases in telephone expense,  insurance expense and property tax expense,
partially  offset by  decreases  in rooms  expense,  rental  and other  expense,
general and  administrative  expenses,  energy  expense,  repair and maintenance
expenses and management  fees.  Occupancy  decreased due to the sluggish economy
and sharp  decline in walk in  business  and the room  nights  generated  by the
Republican National Convention in 2008.

Scottsdale,  Arizona:  Gross  operating  income  decreased  and  operating  loss
increased for the three month period ended September 30, 2009,  compared to 2008
primarily  due to decreases  in rooms  revenue,  food and  beverage  revenue and
telephone  revenue and increases in energy expense,  management fees,  insurance
expense and property tax expense, partially offset by increased rental and other
revenue and decreases in rooms  expense,  food and beverage  expense,  telephone
expense,  rental  and  other  expense,   general  and  administrative  expenses,
marketing expenses and repair and maintenance expenses.  Occupancy decreased due
to the sluggish economy and the absence of demand in the Scottsdale market.

                   Nine month Periods Ended September 30, 2009
                   -------------------------------------------

Clearwater,  Florida:  Gross operating  income  decreased and operating loss was
recognized for the nine month period ended September 30, 2009,  compared to 2008
primarily due to decreases in rooms  revenue,  telephone  revenue and rental and
other  revenue  and  increases  in energy  expense  and repair  and  maintenance
expenses,  partially  offset by decreases in rooms expense,  telephone  expense,
rental  and  other  expense,  general  and  administrative  expenses,  marketing

through Priceline, Hotwire, Travelocity and Orbitz.

Minneapolis, Minnesota: Gross operating income and operating income for the nine
month period ended September 30, 2009,  decreased compared to 2008 primarily due

and increases in telephone  expense and insurance  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  property tax expense.  Occupancy  decreased  due to market
demand with the largest  shortfall in the transient  market,  the  University of
Minnesota  visitor rate,  and the demand  generated by the  Republican  National
Convention in 2008.

Plymouth,  Minnesota:  Gross operating  income and operating income for the nine
month period ended September 30, 2009,  decreased compared to 2008 primarily due

expense,  partially  offset by  decreases  in rooms  expense,  food and beverage
expense, telephone expense, rental and other expense, general and administrative
expenses,  marketing expenses,  energy expense,  repair and maintenance expenses
and management  fees.  Occupancy  decreased due to the sluggish  economy and the
absence of demand in the Scottsdale market.


Item 4. Controls and Procedures

     In October 2009,  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

                                      -18-


Part I. FINANCIAL INFORMATION
Item 4. Controls and Procedures - Continued


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 September 30, 2009, 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  September  30, 2009,  but not reported,
     whether or not otherwise required by this Form 10-Q at September 30, 2009.

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.
