1.       BASIS OF PRESENTATION

         In the opinion of CRICO Hotel Associates I, L.P. (the General Partner),
the accompanying unaudited financial statements of CRI Hotel Income Partners, L.
P. (the  Partnership)  reflect all  adjustments,  consisting of normal recurring
accruals,  necessary  for a fair  presentation  of the  Partnership's  financial
position as of June 30, 2000,  and the results of its  operations  for the three
and six  months  ended  June 30,  2000 and 1999,  and its cash flows for the six
months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999.  The results of operations  for the interim
periods ended June 30, 2000, 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
and with the  instructions  to Form 10-QSB.  Certain  information and accounting
policies  and footnote  disclosures  normally  included in financial  statements
prepared in conformity  with  accounting  principles  generally  accepted in the
United  States 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, 1999.

         Certain amounts in the 1999 financial statements have been reclassified
to conform to the 2000 presentation.


2.       MORTGAGE PAYABLE

         On December 19, 1997,  the  Partnership  refinanced  with Citicorp Real
Estate,  Inc.  (Citicorp)  the Zero  Coupon  Notes  (Former  Notes)  which  were
originally  issued  in  connection  with the  Partnership's  acquisition  of the
hotels.  The new loan  proceeds  of $8.9  million  were in excess of the  amount
needed to pay the Former Notes of $7,874,369  due as of December 19, 1997.  Such
excess  was used to pay the  costs of  refinancing  and to fund  needed  capital
improvements at the hotels. The new loan bears interest at the rate of 7.72% per
annum and matures January 1, 2008. On that date, a balloon payment in the amount
of  $7,273,441  will be due. In accordance  with the terms of the new loan,  the
Partnership  began paying monthly  installments of principal and interest in the
amount of $67,049 on the first day of each month beginning February 1998. If any
such  monthly  installment  is not paid when due,  the entire  principal  amount
outstanding and accrued  interest  thereon shall at once become due and payable,
at the option of the holder.  Subject to prepayment  terms, as discussed  below,
the  refinancing  of the Former  Notes does not  preclude the future sale of the
hotels, either individually or as a portfolio.

         Under the terms of the new loan,  such loan may be prepaid,  subject to
terms and  prepayment  penalties as set forth in the note. The new loan has been
securitized in a "no lock" program, which permits the prepayment of the new loan
with a 3% premium  during the first three  years,  a 2% premium  during the next
three years, a 1% premium during the next three years, and no penalty during the
final year.  Additionally,  see Note 7 for further  information  concerning  the
acquisition and servicing of this loan.

2.       MORTGAGE PAYABLE - Continued

         The Partnership made installments of principal and interest aggregating
$402,294  during  the six  months  ended  both  June  30,  2000  and  1999.  The
Partnership's  balance on this loan was $8,601,679 and $8,666,770 as of June 30,
2000 and December 31, 1999, respectively.


3.       REAL ESTATE TAX AND CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS RESERVE ESCROWS

         In addition to the monthly loan  installments,  as discussed above, the
Partnership  also makes monthly payments which are escrowed for estimated annual
real estate  taxes and capital  improvements  reserves  (CIR).  The monthly real
estate  tax  payments  equal  one-twelfth  of the  estimated  yearly  taxes  and
assessments  to be levied on the  hotels,  currently  estimated  as $38,750  per
month.  The servicer of the loan pays such taxes and  assessments  when due from
these escrows.  The monthly CIR payment  totaling  $19,365 is held in escrow and
may be drawn on by the Partnership for ongoing capital improvement  expenditures
and for the replacement of furniture, fixtures and equipment at the hotels. Both
the real  estate  tax and CIR  payments  are due on the same day as the  monthly
principal and interest installments,  commencing February 1, 1998, until the new
loan is paid in full.

         As of June 30, 2000 and December 31, 1999,  the servicer  held $136,067
and $82,400,  respectively,  for real estate  taxes,  and $95,056 and  $178,010,
respectively,  for capital improvements reserves.  These amounts are included in
receivables,  capital improvements reserves and other assets in the accompanying
financial statements.


4.       WORKING CAPITAL RESERVE

         The working capital reserve of $99,620 and $172,381 as of June 30, 2000
and December 31, 1999, respectively, represents funds held in reserve, initially
established  in an  amount  of not  less  than 1% of  Series  A  gross  offering
proceeds,  which are  maintained  as working  capital for the  Partnership.  The
working capital reserve may be increased or reduced by the General Partner as it
deems appropriate.

         On January 6, 2000, the Partnership advanced $100,000 to the Scottsdale
hotel in the form of a  non-interest  bearing  loan.  On February  4, 2000,  the
Scottsdale hotel repaid $70,000 of this loan; the remaining  $30,000 balance was
repaid on March 1, 2000.

         On June 28, 2000, the Partnership  advanced  $150,000 to the Scottsdale
hotel in the form of a  non-interest  bearing  loan,  which is  scheduled  to be
repaid during the first quarter of 2001.

                           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
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.

                          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,  which are primarily
funded from the capital  improvements  reserve,  the General Partner  determined
that certain capital  improvements  were needed to enhance the  marketability of
the  hotels.  During  1999,  1998 and 1997,  the  Partnership  funded a total of
approximately  $1.4 million from the working  capital  reserve to the hotels for
such capital  improvements,  and the General  Partner intends to fund additional
Partnership  monies  to the  hotels  during  2000  for  further  needed  capital
improvements. The General Partner has approved the expenditure of $70,000 during
the  year  2000  for the  renovation  of a  portion  of the  guest  rooms at the
Roseville  hotel.  Further,  in May 2000, the  Partnership  approved a two-year,
$930,000  renovation and capital  improvement  project for the Scottsdale hotel.
The cost will be funded from the working  capital  reserve of the Partnership in
the amounts of $488,000  and $292,000 in 2000 and 2001,  respectively,  and from
the  Scottsdale  replacements  reserve in the  amounts of $90,000 and $60,000 in
2000 and 2001, respectively.

         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
Partnership  closely monitors its liquidity and cash flow in an effort to ensure
that sufficient cash is available for operating and financing requirements,  and
for possible  distributions to BAC holders.  The Partnership's net cash provided
by operating  activities  for the six months  ended June 30, 2000 and 1999,  was
adequate to support  investing and financing  requirements.  The General Partner
expects  that  existing  cash  resources  along with  future cash flows from the
hotels'  operations,  in the  aggregate,  will be  sufficient  to pay  operating
expenses and short term commitments, and to fund the working capital and capital
improvements  reserves.  Current  liabilities at June 30, 2000 were  $1,227,274,
which  represented  a $281,898  increase  from the balance at December 31, 1999.
This increase primarily resulted from an increase in accrued expenses at four of
the hotels and a  distribution  payable to the BAC holders and General  Partner,
partially offset by a decrease in trade payables at three of the hotels.

Financing
---------

         On December 19, 1997, the Partnership  refinanced the Zero Coupon Notes
which were originally issued in connection with the Partnership's acquisition of
the hotels.  In accordance with the terms of the new loan, the Partnership  made
installments  of principal  and  interest  aggregating  $402,294  during the six
months ended both June 30, 2000 and 1999. The Partnership's balance on this loan
was  $8,601,679  and  $8,666,770  as of June 30,  2000 and  December  31,  1999,
respectively.

Real Estate Tax And Capital Improvements Reserve Escrows
--------------------------------------------------------

         In addition to the monthly loan  installments,  as discussed above, the
Partnership  also makes monthly payments which are escrowed for estimated annual
real estate taxes and capital improvements reserves. During the six months ended
June 30,  2000 and  1999,  the  Partnership  made  escrow  deposits  aggregating
$238,488 and $226,567, respectively, for estimated annual real estate taxes, and
$116,188 and $116,188,  respectively,  for capital improvements.  As of June 30,
2000  and  December  31,  1999,   the  servicer   held   $136,067  and  $82,400,
respectively, for real estate taxes, and $95,056 and $178,010, respectively, for
capital improvements reserves.

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

         The working capital reserve of $99,620 and $172,381 as of June 30, 2000
and December 31, 1999, respectively, represents funds held in reserve, initially
established  in an  amount  of not  less  than 1% of  Series  A  gross  offering
proceeds,  which are  maintained  as working  capital for the  Partnership.  The
working capital reserve may be increased or reduced by the General Partner as it
deems appropriate.

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

         Distributions  declared and payable to BAC holders of record during the
first two quarters of 2000 and 1999 follow.

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

         The  Partnership's net income,  which consists  principally of revenues
from hotel  operations,  increased  $61,780  during the three month period ended
June 30, 2000 from the  comparable  period in 1999,  primarily  due to a $99,175
increase in gross operating  income,  partially  offset by a $41,721 increase in
unallocated  operating  expenses.  The  increase in gross  operating  income was
mainly due to increases in rooms revenue and rental and other revenue, offset by
an increase in rooms expense. The increase in unallocated operating expenses was
due to a loss on assets  disposed  of during  2000,  an  increase  in  marketing
expense  at the  Scottsdale  hotel,  as  discussed  below,  and an  increase  in
depreciation and amortization expense.  These increases were partially offset by
a decrease  in  property  tax  expense  due to a refund  received  in 2000 and a
decrease in building  lease expense due to decreased  revenues at the Scottsdale
hotel  (the  building  lease  payments  are  based  on a  percentage  of  rental
revenues).

         The  Partnership's  net income  increased  $6,343 during the six months
ended  June 30,  2000 from the  comparable  period in 1999,  primarily  due to a
$101,310  increase in gross operating  income, as discussed above, and a $12,563
decrease  in interest  expense due to a  decreasing  mortgage  payable  balance,
substantially  offset by a $107,530 increase in unallocated  operating expenses,
also as discussed above, and an increase in general and administrative  expenses
due to higher reimbursed payroll costs.

         See the following  discussion for an analysis of each hotel's operating
results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2000 versus 1999.

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

         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, the following months should
provide the highest gross operating income and net cash flow.

ITEM 2.           MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
                  -------------------------------------------------
                           CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - Continued
                           -----------------------------------

                        Three Months Ended June 30, 2000
                        --------------------------------

Clearwater,  Florida:  Gross  operating  income  and  operating  income  for the
-------------------  three month period ended June 30, 2000  increased  from the
same period in 1999 as a result of a three percent increase in the average rate,
partially offset by a two point decrease in occupancy. The decrease in occupancy
was the result of new  competition in the area. The increase in the average rate
resulted in slightly higher revenue from hotel operations, while the decrease in
occupancy resulted in lower hotel departmental expenses.

Minneapolis,  Minnesota:  Gross  operating  income and operating  income for the
---------------------- three month period ended June 30, 2000 increased from the
same period in 1999 as a result of a seven point  increase in occupancy  coupled
with a six percent  increase in the average rate. The increases in occupancy and
the  average  rate were the  result of  increased  production  within  the sales
segments, driven primarily by growth in certain group markets.

Plymouth,  Minnesota:  Gross operating income and operating income for the three
-------------------  month  period ended June 30, 2000  increased  from the same
period in 1999 as a result of a twelve point increase in occupancy, coupled with
a four percent  increase in the average rate. The increases in occupancy and the
average rate were the result of a change in the  marketplace  which  resulted in
higher-rated corporate business.

Roseville,  Minnesota:  Gross  operating  income  and  operating  income for the
--------------------  three month period ended June 30, 2000  increased from the
same  period in 1999 as a result of a thirteen  percent  increase in the average
rate, partially offset by an eight point decrease in occupancy.  The increase in
the  average  rate and the  decrease  in  occupancy  were  both the  result of a
decrease in lower-rated trucking business.

Scottsdale,  Arizona:  Gross operating income and operating income for the three
-------------------  month  period ended June 30, 2000  decreased  from the same
period in 1999 as a result  of a five  percent  decrease  in the  average  rate,
coupled with a one point  decrease in  occupancy.  The  decreases in the average
rate and occupancy were the result of competition  from new and newly  renovated
hotels in the area.  Contributing  to the decrease in  operating  income were an
increase  in  marketing  expense due to full  staffing  in the sales  department
compared  to  the  same  period  last  year,   and   increases  in  general  and
administrative expenses, and in property operations and maintenance expenses.

                         Six Months Ended June 30, 2000
                         ------------------------------

Clearwater,  Florida:  Gross  operating  income  and  operating  income  for the
------------------- six month period ended June 30, 2000 decreased from the same
period in 1999 as a result of a three point decrease in occupancy,  coupled with
a four percent  decrease in the average rate. The decreases in occupancy and the
average  rate were the result of new  competition  in the area.  The decrease in
operating income was partially  offset by a decrease in property  operations and
maintenance expense.

with a five percent increase in the average rate, both as discussed above.

Plymouth,  Minnesota:  Gross operating  income and operating  income for the six
-------------------  month  period ended June 30, 2000  increased  from the same

two percent increase in the average rate, both as discussed above.

-------------------  month  period ended June 30, 2000  decreased  from the same
period in 1999 as a result of a four percent  decrease in the average rate while
occupancy  remained  constant at 84%.  The  decrease in the average rate was the
result  of  competition  from  new  and  newly  renovated  hotels  in the  area.

expense,  general and administrative  expenses,  and in property  operations and
maintenance expenses,  as discussed above.  Partially offsetting the decrease in
operating  income was a decrease in building lease  expenses,  also as discussed
above.


PART II.          OTHER INFORMATION
                  -----------------
ITEM 5.           OTHER INFORMATION
                  -----------------

         During 1999, a number of investors sold or otherwise  transferred their
Beneficial  Assignee  Certificates (BACs) in the Partnership to other investors.
If more than 5% of the total outstanding BACs in the Partnership are transferred
in  any  one  calendar  year  (not  counting  certain  exempt  transfers),   the
Partnership could be taxed as a "publicly traded  partnership," with potentially
severe  implications  for the Partnership and its investors.  Specifically,  the
Partnership  would be taxed as a corporation  and the income and losses from the
Partnership  would no longer be considered a passive  activity.  From January 1,
1999 through February 15, 1999,  approximately 4.9% of the outstanding BACs were
sold. Accordingly,  to remain within the 5% safe harbor,  effective February 22,
1999, the General  Partner  halted  recognition of any transfers that exceed the
safe harbor limit  through  December 31,  1999.  This halt was lifted  effective
January 1, 2000.

         During 2000, a number of investors sold or otherwise  transferred their
BACs in the Partnership to other investors.  From January 1, 2000 through August
4, 2000,  approximately 4.9% of the outstanding BACs were sold. Accordingly,  to
remain within the 5% safe harbor (as discussed above), effective August 7, 2000,
the General  Partner  halted  recognition  of any transfers that exceed the safe
harbor limit through December 31, 2000.
