NOTE 1 -- BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited and
include the accounts of Extended Stay America, Inc. and subsidiaries (the
"Company").  All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been
eliminated in consolidation.

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and the
instructions of Regulation S-X.  Accordingly, they do not include all of the
information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles
for complete financial statements.  In the opinion of management, all
adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a
fair presentation have been included.

The condensed consolidated balance sheet data at December 31, 1999 was derived
from audited financial statements of the Company but does not include all
disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles.

Operating results for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2000
are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year
ended December 31, 2000.  For further information, refer to the financial
statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form
10-K for the year ended December 31, 1999.

Derivative Financial Instruments:  The Company does not enter into financial
instruments for trading or speculative purposes.  The Company uses interest rate
cap contracts to hedge its exposure on variable rate debt.  The cost of the caps
is included in prepaid expenses and is amortized to interest expense over the
life of the cap contract.  The interest differential to be received under the
related cap is recognized as a reduction in interest expense in the period
earned.  Changes in the fair value of cap contracts that do not qualify as
hedges are recognized in income when they occur.

In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 133 "Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities."  SFAS No. 133 was amended in June 2000 by
SFAS No. 138 "Accounting for Certain Derivative Instruments and Certain Hedging
Activities - an amendment to FASB Statement No. 133."  SFAS No. 133, as amended,
requires all derivatives to be carried on the balance sheet at fair value.  SFAS
No. 133, as amended, is effective for financial statements issued for periods
beginning after December 15, 2000.  Upon adoption of SFAS No. 133, as amended,
all hedging relationships must be designated and documented pursuant to the
provisions of the statement.  The Company intends to designate its interest cap
contracts as cash-flow hedges.  Accordingly, the difference, net of taxes,
between the fair value of the caps and their carrying value on the balance sheet
under previous hedge-accounting rules will be charged to other comprehensive
income in stockholders' equity.  The Company is in the process of evaluating the
impact of SFAS No. 133 on the financial statements; however, it is not
anticipated that adoption will have a material impact or that it will create a
violation of the Company's debt covenant agreements.  At June 30, 2000, the fair
value of the caps was $535,000 and their carrying value was $1.3 million.

Pursuant to the Statement of Position 98-5, "Reporting on the Costs of Start-up
Activities" issued by the Accounting Standards Executive Committee, effective
January 1, 1999, the Company changed its method of accounting for start-up
activities, including pre-opening and organizational costs, to expense them as
they are incurred.  Accordingly, the Company recorded an expense of $779,000,
net of income tax benefit of $520,000, as the cumulative effect of this change
in accounting.

In the quarter ended September 30, 1998, unfavorable capital market conditions
resulted in a reduction in the Company's development plans for 1999 and 2000. As
a result, a valuation allowance of $12.0 million was established for the write-
off of costs related to sites that would not be developed. This valuation
allowance was reduced by $1.1 million in the quarter ended June 30, 1999 due to
the renegotiation of the terms of a number of the optioned sites.

For the six months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999, the computation of diluted
earnings per share does not include approximately 12,805,000 and 8,098,000
weighted average shares, respectively, of common stock represented by
outstanding options because the exercise price of the options was greater than
the average market price of common stock during the period.

Certain previously reported amounts have been reclassified to conform with the
current period's presentation.

NOTE 3--LONG-TERM DEBT AND DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

In June 2000, the Company increased availability under it's bank credit facility
from $800 million to $1 billion with the addition of a $200 million Tranche D
term loan that matures on June 30, 2007.  The proceeds from the new term loan
were used to reduce amounts outstanding under the Company's revolving loan
facility.

In addition to increasing aggregate borrowings and availability under the credit
facility from $800 million to $1 billion, certain other terms of the credit
facility were modified in connection with an amendment and restatement of the
credit facility.  The credit facility was amended to allow the Company to
purchase up to an additional $75 million of its common stock and/or subordinated
notes, with a sub-limit of $25 million for the subordinated notes.  The credit
facility was also amended to expand the Company's ability to issue its common
stock to effect certain investments.  In addition, certain conditions to each
borrowing of revolving loans were eliminated and the permitted ratio of senior
debt to earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization was
increased to 4.25:1.00 through September 2001 and to 4.00:1.00 thereafter.

Interest on the new Tranche D term loan will be calculated, at the Company's
option, using either the prime rate plus 2.5% or the LIBOR rate plus 3.5%. In
connection with the issuance of the new Tranche D term loan and the amendments
discussed above, the interest rate on the revolving loans and the Tranche A term
loan, which previously varied based on the amount of loans outstanding relative
to earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, are now
calculated, at the Company's option, using either the prime rate plus 1.0% or
the LIBOR rate plus 2.0%. The commitment fee on the unused revolving loan
capacity is 0.5% per annum on the unused amount.

In connection with these revisions to the credit facility, the Company has also
acquired interest rate cap contracts with a financial institution that limit the
Company's exposure to future increases in the LIBOR rate.  These contracts
relate to a total of $800 million and limit the Company's exposure to a maximum
LIBOR rate of 7.88%

from June 16, 2000 through June 16, 2001 and to a maximum LIBOR rate of 8.88%
from June 17, 2001 through June 16, 2002.


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

General

We own and operate three brands in the extended stay lodging market--
StudioPLUS/TM/ Deluxe Studios ("StudioPLUS"), EXTENDED STAYAMERICA Efficiency
Studios ("EXTENDED STAY"), and Crossland Economy Studios/SM/ ("Crossland"). Each
brand is designed to appeal to different price points below $500 per week. All
three brands offer the same core components: a living/sleeping area; a fully-
equipped kitchen or kitchenette; and a bathroom. StudioPLUS facilities serve the
mid-price category and generally feature guest rooms that are larger than those
in our other brands, an exercise facility, and a swimming pool. EXTENDED STAY
rooms are designed to compete in the economy category. Crossland rooms are
typically smaller than EXTENDED STAY rooms and are targeted for the budget
category. In this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the words "Extended Stay
America", "Company", "we", "our", "ours", and "us" refer to Extended Stay
America, Inc. and its subsidiaries unless the context suggests otherwise.

During the quarter ended June 30, 1999, we repositioned 14 StudioPLUS properties
as EXTENDED STAY properties.  All operating statistics reflect the repositioning
of these properties as EXTENDED STAY properties for the entire periods
presented.  The table below provides a summary of our selected development and
operational results for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2000 and
1999.

Average Weekly Room Rate..................   $302      $294      $301      $289


Average occupancy rates are determined by dividing the rooms occupied on a daily
basis by the total number of rooms. Due to our rapid expansion, our overall
average occupancy rate has been negatively impacted by the lower occupancy
typically experienced during the pre-stabilization period for newly-opened
facilities. We expect the negative impact on overall average occupancy to
decline as the ratio of newly-opened properties to total properties in operation
declines. Average weekly room rates are determined by dividing room revenue by
the number of rooms occupied on a daily basis for the applicable period and
multiplying by seven. The average weekly room rates generally will be greater
than standard room rates because of (i) stays of less than one week, which are
charged at a higher nightly rate, (ii) higher weekly rates for rooms that are
larger than the standard rooms, and (iii) additional charges for more than one
person per room. We expect that our future occupancy and room rates will be
impacted by a number of factors, including the number and geographic location of
our new facilities as well as the season in which we open those facilities. We
also cannot assure you that we can maintain our occupancy and room rates.

At June 30, 2000, we had 378 operating facilities (39 Crossland, 248 EXTENDED
STAY, and 91 StudioPLUS) and had 23 facilities under construction (20 EXTENDED
STAY and 3 StudioPLUS). We expect to complete the construction of the facilities
currently under construction generally within the next twelve months, however,
we cannot assure you that we will complete construction within the time periods
we have historically experienced. Our ability to complete construction may be
materially impacted by various factors including final permitting and obtaining
certificates of occupancy, as well as weather-induced construction delays.

Because newly opened properties typically experience lower occupancies during
their pre-stabilization period, average occupancy rates are impacted by the
ratio of newly opened properties to total properties.  Each of our brands
experienced a decline in the ratio of newly opened properties to total
properties for the second quarter of 2000 as compared to the second quarter of
1999.  The impact of this decline in the ratio of newly opened properties, along
with increases in occupancy at our mature properties, resulted in an increase in
our overall average occupancy rate to 83% for the second quarter of 2000
compared to 76% for the second quarter of 1999.  The average occupancy rate in
the second quarter of 2000 for the 334 properties we owned and operated as of
March 31, 1999 was 84%.  Similarly, the average occupancy rate in the second
quarter of 1999 for the 218 properties we owned and operated as of March 31,
1998 was 80%.  We believe that the increase in the average occupancy rate for
properties open for at least one year at the beginning of the quarter of each
year reflects, primarily, increases in the overall demand for lodging products
in the various markets in which we operate.  In addition, we believe that our
occupancies benefited from a strategy implemented at the beginning of 2000 to
establish a more competitive pricing structure for our products.

The increase in overall average weekly room rates for the second quarter of 2000
compared to the second quarter of 1999 reflects primarily the geographic
dispersion of properties opened since June 30, 1999 and the higher standard
weekly room rates in certain of those markets.  The increase also is due in part
to increases in rates charged in previously opened properties.  The average
weekly room rate for the 334 properties that we owned and operated throughout
both periods increased by less than 1% in the second quarter of 2000.  We
believe that the average weekly room rate for these properties was impacted by a
strategy implemented at the beginning of 2000 to establish a more competitive
pricing structure.  We believe that this pricing strategy contributed to an
increase in the occupancy at these properties.

We recognized total revenue of $133.2 million for the second quarter of 2000 and
$106.5 million for the second quarter of 1999.  This is an increase of $26.7
million, or 25%.  Approximately $15.7 million of the increased revenue was
attributable to properties opened subsequent to March 31, 1999 and approximately
$11.0 million was attributable to an increase in revenue for the 334 properties
that we owned and operated throughout both periods.

Property operating expenses, consisting of all expenses directly allocable to
the operation of the facilities but excluding any allocation of corporate
operating and property management expenses, depreciation, or interest were $52.0
million (39% of total revenue) for the second quarter of 2000, compared to $44.1
million (41% of total revenue) for the second quarter of 1999. We expect the
ratio of property operating expenses to total revenue to generally fluctuate
inversely relative to occupancy rate increases or decreases because the majority
of these expenses do not vary based on occupancy. Our overall occupancy rates
were 83% for the second quarter of 2000 and 76% for the second quarter of 1999
and our property operating margins were 61% for the second quarter of 2000 and
59% for the second quarter of 1999.

                                       7



The provisions for depreciation and amortization for our lodging facilities were
$16.0 million for the second quarter of 2000 and $14.6 million for the second
quarter of 1999.  These provisions were computed using the straight-line method
over the estimated useful lives of the assets.  These provisions reflect a pro
rata allocation of the annual depreciation and amortization charge for the
periods for which the facilities were in operation.  Depreciation and
amortization for the second quarter of 2000 increased as compared to the second
quarter of 1999 because we operated 31 additional facilities in 2000 and we
operated for a full quarter the 13 properties that were opened in the second
quarter of 1999.

  Corporate Operations

Corporate operating and property management expenses include all expenses not
directly related to the development or operation of lodging facilities. These
expenses consist primarily of personnel and certain marketing costs, as well as
development costs that are not directly related to a site that we will develop.
We incurred corporate operating and property management expenses of $11.1
million (8% of total revenue) in the second quarter of 2000 and $10.4 million
(10% of total revenue) in the second quarter of 1999.  The increase in the
amount of these expenses for the second quarter of 2000 as compared to the same
period in 1999 reflects the impact of additional personnel and related expenses
in connection with the increased number of facilities we operated.  We expect
these expenses will continue to increase in total amount but decline moderately
as a percentage of revenue as we develop and operate additional facilities in
the future.

Depreciation and amortization was $316,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2000
and $337,000 for the comparable period in 1999.  These provisions were computed
using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets for
assets not directly related to the operation of our facilities.  These assets
were primarily office furniture and equipment.

We realized $139,000 of interest income in the second quarter of 2000 and
$222,000 in the second quarter of 1999.  This interest income was primarily
attributable to the temporary investment of funds drawn under our credit
facilities.  We incurred interest charges of $20.9 million during the second
quarter of 2000 and $16.4 million in the second quarter of 1999.  Of these
amounts, $2.3 million in the second quarter of 2000 and $2.4 million in the
second quarter of 1999 were capitalized and included in the cost of buildings
and improvements.

We recognized income tax expense of $14.2 million and $9.7 million (40% of
income before income taxes and the cumulative effect of an accounting change, in
both periods) for the second quarter of 2000 and 1999, respectively.  Our income
tax expense differs from the federal income tax rate of 35% primarily due to
state and local income taxes.  We expect our annualized effective income tax
rate for 2000 will be approximately 40%.

  Reduction in Valuation Allowance

In the quarter ended September 30, 1998, unfavorable capital market conditions
resulted in a reduction in our development plans for 1999 and 2000.  As a
result, a valuation allowance of $12.0 million was established for the write-off
of costs related to sites that would not be developed.  The operating results
for the quarter ended June 30, 1999 reflect the reversal of $1.1 million of this
valuation allowance resulting from the renegotiation of the terms of a number of
the optioned sites.

Average occupancy rates for each of the brands increased for the six-month
period ended June 30, 2000 as compared to the same period in 1999 primarily due
to a decrease in the ratio of newly opened properties to total properties for
those brands.  In addition, we believe that our occupancies have benefited from
a strategy implemented at the beginning of 2000 to establish a more competitive
pricing structure for our products.  The average occupancy rate in the six
months ended June 30, 2000 for the 305 properties that we owned and operated as
of December 31, 1998 was 79%.

The increase in average weekly room rates for the six months ended June 30, 2000
as compared to the same period of 1999 reflects primarily the geographic
dispersion of properties opened since June 30, 1999 and the higher standard
weekly room rates in certain of those markets. The increase also is due in part
to increases in rates charged at previously opened properties.  The average
weekly room rate for the 305 properties that we owned and operated throughout
both periods increased 1% in the first six months of 2000.  We believe that the
average weekly room rate for these properties was impacted by a strategy
implemented at the beginning of 2000 to establish a more competitive pricing
structure.  We believe that this pricing strategy contributed to an increase in
the occupancy at these properties.

We recognized total revenue of $247.2 million for the six months ended June 30,
2000 and $195.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 1999.  This is an
increase of $51.3 million, or 26%.  Approximately $37.6 million of the increased
revenue was attributable to properties opened subsequent to December 31, 1998
and approximately $13.7 million was attributable to an increase in revenue for
the 305 properties that we owned and operated throughout both periods.

Property operating expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2000 were $102.9
million (42% of total revenue) compared to $85.0 million (43% of total revenue)
for the six months ended June 30, 1999.  The decrease in property operating
expenses as a percentage of total revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2000
as compared to the same period of 1999 was primarily a result of improved
occupancies and revenues for the facilities that were in their pre-stabilization
periods during the first six months of 1999.  Operating expenses as a percentage
of revenue generally decline as a newly-opened property increases its occupancy
and revenue because the majority of these expenses do not vary based on
occupancy.  As a result of the foregoing, we realized property operating margins
of 58% for the six months ended June 30, 2000 and 57% for the six months ended
June 30, 1999.

The provisions for depreciation and amortization for our lodging facilities were
$31.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2000 and $28.2 million for the
six months ended June 30, 1999.  The increase in depreciation and amortization
for the six months ended June 30, 2000 as compared to the same period in 1999 is
due to the operation of 31 additional facilities in 2000 and we operated for a
full six months the 42 properties that were opened in the first six months of
1999.

                                       9



  Corporate Operations

We incurred corporate operating and property management expenses of $22.0
million (9% of total revenue) in the six months ended June 30, 2000 and $20.7
million (11% of total revenue) in the six months ended June 30, 1999.  The
increase in the amount of these expenses for the six-month period ended June 30,
2000 as compared to the same period in 1999 reflects the impact of additional
personnel and related expenses in connection with the increased number of
facilities we operated.  We expect these expenses will continue to increase in
total amount but decline moderately as a percentage of revenue as we develop and
operate additional facilities in the future.

Depreciation and amortization for assets not directly related to operation of
our facilities was $641,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2000 and $642,000
for the six months ended June 30, 1999.

We realized $336,000 of interest income in the six months ended June 30, 2000
and $400,000 in the six months ended June 30, 1999.  This interest income was
attributable to the temporary investment of funds drawn under our credit
facilities.  We incurred interest charges of $40.4 million in the six months
ended June 30, 2000 and $31.5 million in the six months ended June 30, 1999.  Of
these amounts, $4.5 million in the six months ended June 30, 2000 and $5.9
million in the six months ended June 30, 1999 were capitalized and included in
the cost of buildings and improvements.

We recognized income tax expense of $21.7 million for the six-month period ended
June 30, 2000 and $14.8 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 1999
(40% of income before income taxes and the cumulative effect of an accounting
change, in both periods).  Income tax expense differs from the federal income
tax rate of 35% primarily due to state and local income taxes.

  Cumulative Effect of a Change in Accounting

Pursuant to the Statement of Position 98-5, "Reporting on the Costs of Start-up
Activities" issued by the Accounting Standards Executive Committee, effective
January 1, 1999, we changed our method of accounting for start-up activities,
including pre-opening and organizational costs to expense them as they are
incurred. Accordingly, we recorded an expense of $779,000, net of income tax
benefit of $520,000, as the cumulative effect of this change in accounting.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We had net cash and cash equivalents of $10.1 million as of June 30, 2000 and
$6.4 million as of December 31, 1999.  At June 30, 2000 we had approximately
$10.1 million, and at December 31, 1999 we had approximately $45,000, invested
in short-term demand notes having credit ratings of A1/P1 or the equivalent
using domestic commercial banks and other financial institutions.  We also
deposited excess funds during these periods in an overnight sweep account with a
commercial bank which in turn invested these funds in short-term, interest-
bearing reverse repurchase agreements.  Due to the short-term nature of these
investments, we did not take possession of the securities, which were instead
held by the financial institutions.  The market value of the securities held
pursuant to these arrangements approximates the carrying amount.  Deposits in
excess of $100,000 are not insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation.

Our operating activities generated cash of $81.9 million during the six months
ended June 30, 2000 and $47.8 million during the six months ended June 30, 1999.

We used $127.7 million to acquire land, develop, or furnish a total of 39 sites
opened or under construction in the six months ended June 30, 2000 and $181.1
million for 65 sites in the six months ended June 30, 1999.

Our cost to develop a property varies significantly by brand and by geographic
location due to differences in land and labor costs.  Similarly, the average
weekly rate charged and the resultant cash flow from these properties will vary
significantly but generally are expected to be in proportion to the development
costs.  For the 329 properties we opened from January 1, 1996 through December
31, 1999, the average development cost was approximately $5.3 million with an
average of 107 rooms.  In 2000, we expect to open a number of properties in the

                                      10



Northeast and West where average development costs are higher.  Accordingly, we
expect our average development cost for 2000 to increase to approximately $8.4
million per property.

We made open market repurchases of 1,092,400 shares of common stock for
approximately $8.6 million in the six months ended June 30, 2000.  We received
net proceeds from the exercise of options to purchase common stock totaling
$70,000 in the six months ended June 30, 2000 and $5.4 million in the six months
ended June 30, 1999.

We have $200 million of 9.15% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2008 (the "Notes").
In June 2000, we increased availability under our bank credit facility from $800
million to $1.0 billion with the addition of a $200 million Tranche D term loan
that matures on June 30, 2007. The amended $1.0 billion credit facility (the
"Credit Facility") provides for a $350 million revolving loan facility (the
"Revolving Facility"), a $150 million term loan facility (the "Tranche A
Facility"), a $198 million (net of scheduled principal repayments of $2 million
in 1999) term loan facility (the "Tranche B Facility"), a $100 million term loan
facility (the "Tranche C Facility"), and a $200 million term loan facility (the
"Tranche D Facility"). The proceeds from the Tranche D Facility were used to
reduce amounts outstanding under the Revolving Facility. As of June 30, 2000, we
had outstanding loans of $72 million under the Revolving Facility and $648
million under the term loans, leaving $278 million available and committed under
the Credit Facility.

In addition to increasing aggregate borrowings and availability under the Credit
Facility from $800 million to $1.0 billion, certain other terms of the Credit
Facility were modified in connection with an amendment and restatement of the
Credit Facility.  The Credit Facility was amended to allow us to purchase up to
an additional $75 million of our common stock and/or subordinated notes, with a
sub-limit of $25 million for the subordinated notes.  The Credit Facility also
was amended to expand our ability to issue common stock to effect certain
investments.  In addition, certain conditions to borrowings of revolving loans
were eliminated and the permitted ratio of senior debt to earnings before
interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization was increased to 4.25:1.00
through September 2001 and to 4.00:1.00 thereafter.

Loans under the Credit Facility bear interest, at our option, at either a
variable prime-based rate or a variable LIBOR-based rate, plus an applicable
margin.  Interest rates on the Tranche B Facility  and Tranche C Facility were
not affected by the amendment.  Interest on the Tranche D Facility is
calculated, at our option, using either the prime rate plus 2.5% or the LIBOR
rate plus 3.5%.  In connection with the issuance of the new Tranche D Facility
and the amendments discussed above, the interest rate on loans under the
Revolving Facility and the Tranche A Facility, which previously varied based on
the amount of loans outstanding relative to earnings before interest, taxes,
depreciation, and amortization, are now calculated, at our option, using either
the prime rate plus 1.0% or the LIBOR rate plus 2.0%.  The commitment fee on the
unused revolving loan capacity is 0.5% per annum on the unused amount.

Our primary market risk exposures result from the variable nature of the
interest rates on borrowings under the Credit Facility.  We entered into the
Credit Facility for purposes other than trading.  Based on the levels of
borrowings under the Credit Facility at June 30, 2000, if interest rates changed
by 1.0%, our annual cash flow and net income would change by $4.3 million.  We
manage our market risk exposures by periodic evaluation of such exposures
relative to the costs of reducing the exposures by entering into interest rate
swap or cap agreements or by refinancing the underlying obligations with longer
term fixed rate debt obligations.  We do not own derivative financial
instruments or derivative commodity instruments other than interest rate cap
contracts on a total of $800 million that limit our exposure to LIBOR increases
to a maximum LIBOR rate of 7.88% from June 16, 2000 through June 16, 2001 and to
a maximum LIBOR rate of 8.88% from June 17, 2001 through June 16, 2002.  At June
30, 2000 the fair value of the interest cap contracts was $535,000 and their
carrying value was $1.3 million.

We plan to develop approximately 30 properties with total costs of approximately
$250 million in 2000.  We had commitments not reflected in our financial
statements at June 30, 2000 totaling approximately $125 million to complete
construction of extended stay properties.  We believe that the remaining
availability under the Credit Facility, together with cash on hand and cash
flows from operations, will provide sufficient funds to continue our expansion
as presently planned and to fund our operating expenses through 2001.  We may
need additional capital depending on a number of factors, including the number
of properties we construct or acquire, the timing of that development, and the
cash flow generated by our properties.  Also, if capital markets provide
favorable opportunities, our plans or assumptions change or prove to be
inaccurate, our existing sources of funds prove to be

                                      11



insufficient to fund our growth and operations, or if we consummate
acquisitions, we may seek additional capital sooner than currently anticipated.
In the event we obtain additional capital, we may seek to increase property
openings in future years. Sources of capital may include public or private debt
or equity financing. We cannot assure you that we will be able to obtain
additional financing on acceptable terms, if at all. Our failure to raise
additional capital could result in the delay or abandonment of some or all of
our development and expansion plans, and could have a material adverse effect on
us.

New Accounting Releases

In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 133 "Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities."  SFAS No. 133 was amended in June 2000 by
SFAS No. 138 "Accounting for Certain Derivative Instruments and Certain Hedging
Activities - an amendment to FASB Statement No. 133."  SFAS No. 133, as amended,
requires all derivatives to be carried on our balance sheet at fair value.  SFAS
No. 133, as amended, is effective for financial statements issued for periods
beginning after December 15, 2000.  Upon adoption of SFAS No. 133, as amended,
all hedging relationships must be designated and documented pursuant to the
provisions of the statement.  We intend to designate our interest cap contracts
as cash-flow hedges.  Accordingly, the difference, net of taxes, between the
fair value of the caps and their carrying value on our balance sheet under
previous hedge-accounting rules will be charged to other comprehensive income in
stockholders' equity.  We are in the process of evaluating the impact of SFAS
No. 133 on our financial statements; however, we do not anticipate that adoption
will have a material impact or that it will create a violation of our debt
covenant agreements.  At June 30, 2000, the fair value of the interest cap
contracts was $535,000 and their carrying value was $1.3 million.

Seasonality and Inflation

Based upon the operating history of our facilities, we believe that extended
stay lodging facilities are not as seasonal in nature as the overall lodging
industry.  We do expect, however, that our occupancy rates and revenues will be
lower than average during the first and fourth quarters of each calendar year.
Because many of our expenses do not fluctuate with changes in occupancy rates,
declines in occupancy rates may cause fluctuations or decreases in our quarterly
earnings.

The rate of inflation as measured by changes in the average consumer price index
has not had a material effect on our revenue or operating results during any of
the periods presented.  We cannot assure you, however, that inflation will not
affect our future operating or construction costs.
