                      NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS




NOTE A - SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 A summary of the accounting policies consistently applied in the
 accompanying financial statements follows.

 1.  Nature of Operations
     --------------------

 The Company owns and operates lodging facilities in Georgia which offer
 both temporary (minimum seven days) and long-term accommodations which
 include fully-equipped cooking facilities and on-premises laundry
 facilities.  Customers include people on short-term work or training
 assignments, recreational travelers, and people in the midst of
 relocation.

 2.  Inventory
     ---------

 Inventory consists of personal care items and snack foods for resale
 and is stated at the lower of cost or market using the first-in, first-
 out method.

 3.  Property and Equipment
     ----------------------

 Property and equipment are recorded at cost including capitalized
 interest cost incurred during the period of construction.  Depreciation
 is provided for in amounts sufficient to relate the cost of depreciable
 assets to operations over their estimated service lives using the
 straight-line method for buildings and accelerated methods for
 furniture and equipment.

 4.  Loan Fees
     ---------

 Loan fees and other associated closing costs are recorded at cost. 
 Amortization is calculated using the straight-line method over the term
 of the related loan.

 5.  Income Taxes
     ------------

 The Company has elected to be taxed under the provisions of Subchapter
 S of the Internal Revenue code.  Under those provisions, the Company
 does not pay federal and state income taxes.  Instead, the stockholders
 are taxed on their proportionate share of the Company's taxable income. 
 Therefore, no provision or liability for federal and state taxes has
 been included in these financial statements.  The net income tax basis
 of the Company's assets and liabilities is approximately $425,000 less
 than the amounts reported in the Company's financial statements.  If
 the Company were to convert to a Subchapter C corporation, in which
 income taxes are payable by the Company rather than it's stockholders,
 the Company would record a deferred tax liability for the income tax
 effect of the $425,000 difference noted above.

NOTE A - SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES - Continued

 6.  Use of Estimates
     ----------------

 In preparing the Company's financial statements, management is required
 to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of
 assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and
 liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported
 amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual
 results could differ from those estimates.   

 7.  Recently Issued Accounting Standard
     -----------------------------------

 Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 121, Accounting for the
 Impairment of Long-lived Assets and for Long-lived Assets to be
 Disposed Of, was issued in March 1995.  This standard was adopted
 as of January 1, 1996 and did not have a material impact on
 financial position or results of operations.

 8.  Interim Financial Statements
     ----------------------------

 The unaudited interim financial statements reflected herein, include
 all adjustments which, in the opinion of management are necessary in
 order to make the interim financial statements not misleading.
   

NOTE B - PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT

 Property and equipment consists of the following as of December 31,

1.  Assumptions
    -----------

On December 31, 1996, Efficiency Lodge, Inc. ( ELI ) merged with and into
Southern Acceptance Corporation (the  Company ), which is the Surviving
Corporation.  For accounting purposes, the transaction has been treated
as a recapitalization of ELI with ELI as the acquirer (reverse
acquisition).

The unaudited pro forma condensed balance sheet as of September 30, 1996
gives effect to the Merger as if the Merger had occurred on September 30,
1996.  The unaudited pro forma condensed statements of operations for the
year ended December 31, 1995 and for the nine months ended September 30,
1996 give effect to the merger as if the merger had been consummated as
of January 1, 1995.  The unaudited pro forma condensed statement of
operations for the year ended December 31, 1995 also includes the results
of operations for Bartow Lodge for the period January 1, 1995 through

                                                               September 30,
                                                                   1996
                                                               -------------
(1)   Elimination of Southern Acceptance's
      equity as a result of the merger
         Common stock                                         $     (521,347)
         Additional paid-in capital                               (2,615,506)
         Accumulated deficit                                       2,981,505

      Elimination of ELI common stock
         Common stock                                                  (900)

      Issuance of 1,026,880 shares in

           Common stock                                             102,688
           Additional paid-in capital                                38,792

      Because the acquisition is accounted for as a
         reverse acquisition, the purchase price is deemed
         to be the fair value of the net tangible assets of the
         Company.  This is approximately $217,500 and was
         allocated to the net assets as follows:
             Property and equipment, $138,267; cash, $163,424;
               other assets, $479; mortgage notes payable, $39,877,
               other liabilities, $44,945

           Fair value of net Company assets and liabilities over
             historical basis and deferred tax effect
               Property and equipment                               100,000
               Other liabilities (deferred income taxes)             38,000
              Additional paid-in capital                             62,000


      Summary of above adjustments
         Cash                                                       (14,768)
         Property and equipment                                     100,000
         Other liabilities                                           38,000
         Common stock                                              (419,559)
         Additional paid-in capital                              (2,514,714)
