                       MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
                 OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATION
                              SEPTEMBER 30, 1995
                 ------------------------------------------------


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
- --------------------------------

        The Partnership has current assets of $888,340 which exceed its current 
liabilities of $235,470 by $652,870. This surplus provides  an operating 
reserve equal to 13% of the Partnership's original capital  raised.  While the 
Partnership agreement has no reserve requirement, the  General Partner has set 
a $250,000 target (5% of the Partnership's original  capitalization). Recurring 
seasonal cash flows have resulted in slight depletions and subsequent 
replenishments of the target operating reserve. The General Partner has set 
distributions to Limited Partners at a steady  $125,000 per quarter in recent 
years rather than causing such distributions  to vary with seasonal cash flows.

        As shown on the Statement of Cash Flows for the nine months ended  
September 30, 1995, the Partnership's cash resources increased by $263,228 
during the period covered by this report as compared with an increase of 
$136,773 during the corresponding period of the preceding fiscal year, which  
is an improvement of $126,445.  Other than operating cash flow, additional  
borrowing against the properties is the only realistic source of cash in the  
unlikely event that reserves do not satisfy the Partnership's future cash  
requirements.

        During the first nine months of this fiscal year, the Partnership's  
expenditures for replacement and renovation (which include both capitalized  
replacements of personal property and certain non-recurring repairs and  
refurbishment to both real and personal property) amounted to approximately
$136,165 (of which $34,083 was capitalized).  These expenditures represent 5.2% 
of guest room revenues.  The General Partner's guideline for this type of  
expenditure  is 3% of annual guest room revenue.  The General Partner has  
authorized its guideline to be exceeded this year and possibly next year for 
some renovation at its South San Francisco property.
     
        No further significant renovation or replacement expenditures are  
anticipated during the remainder of the current fiscal year.  The General  
Partner has decided to continue to fund long life replacements from cash flow  
rather than using leases as the rate spread between potential interest income  
and typical lease rates is too great.  The Partnership will continue this 
policy while operational cash flow can satisfy operating needs, the current 
level of distributions to Limited Partners and the minor replacements and  
refurbishment necessary to maintain the properties in acceptable condition.
                                       

NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
- ------------------------- 
                        
        SFAS No. 121,  Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and  
for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed OF,  requires the Partnership to disclose  
information about potential impairment to the value of long-lived assets.  The  
Partnership is not required to adopt and does not currently plan to adopt SFAS  
No. 121 until its fiscal year ending December 31, 1996.  The Partnership does 
not expect to make any disclosures about impairment of long-lived assets  under 
SFAS No. 121.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
- --------------------- 
        The following is a comparison of the first nine months of the fiscal  
year ending December 31, 1995 with the corresponding period of the preceding  
fiscal year.  

                             Occupancy Percentage                
                          1995                     1994

                  Quarter      Date        Quarter      Date 
                  -------     -------      -------     -------
South 
San Francisco       85.6%      70.6%        75.2%       64.1% 
Sacramento          60.5%      58.8%        63.9%       64.7% 
Modesto             83.2%      76.3%        76.1%       71.6% 

Combined            75.1%      67.3%        71.0%       66.2% 

                                Average Room Rate                       
                          1995                     1994     
                  Current     Year to      Current     Year to
                  Quarter      Date        Quarter      Date 
                  -------     -------      -------     -------
South 
San Francisco     $52.48      $49.76       $50.46      $48.43
Sacramento        $41.65      $40.68       $39.47      $37.12
Modesto           $41.51      $41.15       $42.23      $41.23 

Combined          $46.06      $44.24       $44.39      $42.16 




        Total income increased by $202,074 or 8.0%.  The major revenue item, 
guest room revenue, increased $168,149 or 6.8%, due to an increases in both the 
combined average room rate and in the occupancy rate during the first nine 
months of 1995 as compared to the corresponding period of the previous fiscal 
year. 

        The increases in the South San Francisco and Modesto occupancy rates 
were offset by the decline in the Sacramento occupancy rate.  The South San 
Francisco motel has achieved a substantial increase in business from the 
corporate and group market segment.  The Modesto motel derived its occupancy 
increase from the leisure market segment.   The decrease in occupancy at the
Sacramento property  was due to a  decline in the room nights provided by the 
McClellan Air Force Base.  The base installed 30 additional rooms to its supply 
of on-base transient housing.  As a result , and not withstanding the occupancy 
decrease discussed above, during the period covered by this report, the 
Sacramento motel's guest room revenue is basically unchanged from the same nine 
month period of the preceding fiscal year.

                       MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
                 OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATION
                              SEPTEMBER 30, 1995
                 ------------------------------------------------

        The Partnership has been able to achieve average room rate increases in 
each of its three markets.  The general market conditions in both of the South
San Francisco and Modesto markets has enabled the properties to reduce 
acceptance of discounted business and in favor of higher-rate corporate and 
leisure business.  The Sacramento motel has achieved an increase in its leisure 
business while experiencing a decrease in its discounted military business.  
Sacramento's guest room revenue is actually higher than that achieved in the 
corresponding quarter of the previous fiscal year and is basically unchanged 
for the nine month period covered by this report.
             
        Total expenses increased $126,208, or 5.9%.  Motel operating expenses, 
the major expense component, increased by $108,460, or 6.5%.   Included within 
the increased expenditures is a replacement roof for the Sacramento property in 
the amount of $21,517.  The other increased expenses are due primarily to costs 
associated with the increased occupancy.

FUTURE TRENDS
- -------------

        The General Partners anticipate slightly improved market conditions for 
1995 as compared with the previous fiscal year. The South San Francisco market, 
which traditionally generated 40% of the Partnership's room revenue, has 
substantially recovered from the recessionary conditions of the last two years. 
The General Partners have determined that cost control efforts will provide the 
best immediate return to the Partnership.  The major components of the cost 
control program were in place by December 31, 1993 and have resulted in 
significant increases in profitability.

        The Sacramento property historically has had significant occupancy from 
the McClellan Air Force Base.  The Base added 30 additional rooms to its 
transit housing during 1994 which has had a negative effect on the Sacramento 
property's occupancy.  The inclusion of the McClellan Air Force Base on the 
1995 Department of Defense base closing list will have an additional negative 
effect on the property's future occupancy sometime after 1996 when base 
operations begin to wind down.

        In the opinion of Management, these financial statements reflect all 
adjustments which were necessary to a fair statement of results for the interim 
periods presented.  All adjustments are of a normal recurring nature.
