ITEM 1 - FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
- -----------------------------

         The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements
of Red Roof Inns, Inc. ("Red Roof" or the "Company"), a Delaware corporation,
have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q, and
therefore do not include all information and notes necessary for complete
financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles. The results for the periods indicated are unaudited, but reflect all
adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals) which management
considers necessary for a fair presentation of operating results. Results of
operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of a full year of
operations or results for other interim periods. All material intercompany
transactions and balances between Red Roof Inns, Inc. and its subsidiaries have
been eliminated in consolidation. These condensed consolidated financial
statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's 1997 audited
consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's
Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 3, 1998.

ITEM 1 - FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)
- -----------------------------------------
RED ROOF INNS, INC.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE THIRTEEN WEEKS ENDED MARCH 29, 1997 AND APRIL 4, 1998 (UNAUDITED)

1.    GENERAL

         The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of
Red Roof Inns, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All material intercompany

of its inns. The program is expected to be completed in the second quarter of
1998 at a total cost of approximately $68 million. For the thirteen week periods
ended March 29, 1997 and April 4, 1998, the Company spent $17.9 million and $1.9
million, respectively, related to the inn renewal program, of which $13.1
million and $1.9 million, respectively, was capitalized. Totals costs incurred
through April 4, 1998 related to the inn renewal program totaled $62.4 million.

5.       SUPPLEMENTAL CASH  FLOW INFORMATION

6.    SPECIAL CHARGES

         The Company recognized special charges of $4.8 million related to its
inn renewal program for the thirteen week period ended March 29, 1997. The
company incurred no such special charges for the thirteen week period ended
April 4, 1998.

7.    SUBSEQUENT EVENT

         On April 30, 1998, the Company sold at approximate net book value, four
of its California properties to a franchisee for a total of approximately $14
million. A fifth property in California was leased to the franchisee with an
option to purchase. The five inns contain a total of 575 rooms. Net proceeds of
approximately $12 million from the sale were used to repay mortgage
indebtedness. The sale of these properties will not have a significant effect on
the results of operations for the Company.

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

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

         The principal factors affecting Red Roof Inns' results are: occupancy
and room rates, continued growth in the number of inns, fee based income from
franchising and partner programs, the Company's ability to manage expenses, the
level of competition and seasonality. Demand, and thus occupancy, is affected by
normally recurring seasonal patterns and, in most locations, is lower in the
winter and early spring months than the balance of the year. Historically,
revenues have been lower in the first quarter than in other quarters and the
Company has typically incurred net losses in the first quarter.

         Four Company owned inns and two franchised inns opened during the first
quarter of 1998, increasing the total number of inns operating at April 4, 1998,
to 265 (including seven franchised inns). At March 29, 1997, 249 inns were in
operation all of which were Company owned. Unless otherwise indicated, inn data
presented in this report is based on the 243 inns (the "Comparable Inns") that
the Company owned and operated at the beginning of the 1998 fiscal year
following four successive quarters as open, operating, fully renovated or
constructed properties. Management believes that the remaining 15 Company
operated inns acquired or constructed (the "Inns in Stabilization") have not
been operated by the Company for a sufficient period to provide meaningful
period-to-period comparisons. Included in the Inns in Stabilization are acquired
inns that underwent renovation causing rooms to be out of service. Therefore,
the average daily room rates and occupancy for these inns are not comparable to
stabilized Red Roof inns. Both acquired and newly constructed inns historically
begin with lower occupancy and average daily rates which should improve over
time as these inns implement the Company's operating policies and procedures and
become integrated into the Company's central reservation system.

         The following Comparable Inns data is a comparison of the thirteen
weeks ended April 4, 1998 versus the thirteen weeks ended April 5, 1997. During
the first quarter, the average daily rate ("ADR") decreased $2.21 or 4.9%, from
$45.52 per occupied room in 1997 to $43.31 per occupied room in 1998. Occupancy
increased 8.4 percentage points from 63.8% in the first quarter of 1997 to 72.2%
for the comparable period in 1998. Revenue per available room ("REVPAR")
increased $2.23, or 7.7%, from $29.04 in 1997 to $31.27 in 1998. The Company
attributes the increase in occupancy and REVPAR to substantial completion of the
inn renewal program, effective occupancy and rate management, greater emphasis
on customer service resulting in repeat business from guests and aggressive
targeting of new guests through corporate sales efforts and sales promotions.

       Thirteen Weeks Ended April 4, 1998 Compared to Thirteen Weeks Ended
       -------------------------------------------------------------------
                                 March 29, 1997
                                 --------------

         The Company's revenues are principally derived from room rentals.
Revenues increased $10.9 million, or 15.0%, from $72.7 million in 1997 to $83.6
million in 1998. Revenues for the 243 Comparable Inns increased approximately
$7.3 million from 1997 to 1998 as a result of the significant REVPAR increase.
Revenues for the Inns in Stabilization increased approximately $3.2 million of
which approximately $3.0 million resulted from increasing the number of Company
owned inns from 249 in 1997 to 258 inns in 1998.


                                       8

         Direct room expenses include salaries, wages, utilities, repairs and
maintenance, property taxes, room supplies and security. Direct room expenses
increased $7.4 million, or 18.4%, from $40.0 million in 1997 to $47.4 million in
1998. As a percentage of revenues, direct room expenses increased from 55.1% in
1997 to 56.7% in 1998. The expenses increased primarily because of higher
occupancy levels, the addition of new inns and planned increases in routine
repairs and maintenance and salary and wage expenses.

         Gross operating profit (revenues less direct expenses) increased $3.5
million, or 10.7%, from $32.7 million in 1997 to $36.2 million in 1998 primarily
as a result of increased revenues and an increase in the number of inns. As a
percentage of room revenues, gross operating profit was 44.9% in 1997 and 43.3%
in 1998.

         Depreciation and amortization increased $1.2 million from $8.3 million
in 1997 to $9.5 million in 1998. The increase primarily reflects depreciation of
operating inns acquired or developed during 1997 and 1998.

         Corporate expenses include the cost of general management, training and
field supervision of inn managers, franchising, development, reservations and
administrative expenses. Corporate expenses increased $.5 million, or 6.2%, from
$7.4 million in 1997 to $7.9 million in 1998. The increase is primarily related
to annual payroll increases for salaried and hourly employees and increased
reservation costs, primarily telecommunication expenses, attributed to the
occupancy increase. As a percentage of revenue, corporate expenses decreased 0.7
percentage points from 10.2% in 1997 to 9.5% in 1998.

         Marketing expenses include the cost of media advertising and related
production costs, billboard expenses and expenses associated with the Company's
corporate sales group. Marketing expenses decreased $.9 million, or 13.2%, from
$6.8 million in 1997 to $5.9 million in 1998. The decrease is primarily related
to the elimination of a winter advertising program, a less expensive spring
advertising campaign and a reduction in outdoor advertising costs. These
decreases were partially offset by increases in payroll costs and expenses
associated with additional corporate sales staff. As a percentage of revenue,
marketing expenses decreased 2.3 percentage points from 9.3% in 1997 to 7.0% in
1998.

         In the fourth quarter of 1996, the Company commenced a chainwide inn
renewal program to refurbish the majority of its inns. The Company incurred
expenses of $4.8 million in 1997 associated with the inn renewal program. The
Company incurred no such expenses in 1998.

         Interest expense increased $.8 million, or 7.1%, from $11.2 million in
1997 to $12.0 million in 1998 primarily because of a higher outstanding balance
on the Company's bank credit facility to fund construction and renovation
activity.

         The effective income tax rates for 1997 and 1998 were 39.3% and 38.9%,
respectively. The decline in the 1998 effective tax rate is due to a reduction
in state and local income taxes.

SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION

         Management believes the following supplemental information presents
meaningful summary comparisons of on-going operations of the Company, adjusted
to reflect the elimination of certain special charges to arrive at adjusted
operating income, net income (loss) and earnings (loss) per share amounts. These
amounts do not represent operating income, net income (loss), and earnings
(loss) per share as defined by generally accepted accounting principles.

CAPITAL RESOURCES AND LIQUIDITY

General

         Cash and cash equivalents decreased $4.2 million from $13.2 million on
January 3, 1998 to $9.0 million on April 4, 1998. Total debt outstanding
increased approximately $1.9 million from $551.2 million at January 3, 1998 to
$553.1 million at April 4, 1998 because of net borrowings under the bank credit
facility, which were partially offset by scheduled principal amortization of
mortgage notes and obligations under capital leases.

         Management anticipates that its working capital needs will be financed
by internally generated cash and the bank credit facility.

Capital Expenditures

         The Company continued its inn renewal program to refurbish
substantially all of its inns. For the thirteen week periods ended March 29,
1997 and April 4, 1998, the Company spent $13.1 million and $1.9 million,
respectively, for such capital improvements.

         For the thirteen week periods ended March 29, 1997 and April 4, 1998,
the Company spent $3.0 million and $2.8 million, respectively, in connection
with normal recurring capital maintenance improvements to existing inns,
corporate facilities and equipment and expects to spend a total of approximately
$16 million for such capital maintenance improvements for the year.
Additionally, the Company is completing construction and renovation of
properties acquired since 1996. In connection with the improvements and
renovations of these properties, the Company spent $16.3 million during the
thirteen week period ended April 4, 1998, and expects to spend an additional
$29.8 million through the end of the year.

         During the thirteen week period ended April 4, 1998, the Company spent
approximately $0.5 million to acquire one construction site. Management is
currently evaluating whether to develop the site or sell the parcel to a
franchisee.

         Currently, the Company has no construction sites or properties under
contract to purchase.

         Management expects to fund the Company's capital expenditures
associated with improvements to the Comparable Inns and Inns in Stabilization
from cash flow from operations and from borrowings under the bank credit
facility. Expenditures for new construction, acquisitions and renovations will
be financed from these sources, together with available cash.

Historical Cash Flows

         Cash provided by operations increased $6.8 million from $6.9 million in
1997 to $13.7 million in 1998, due to the $4.1 million increase in net income, a
$1.3 million increase in non-cash expenses and a $1.4 million increase in
various working capital components.

         Net cash used by investing activities decreased $8.8 million from $29.7
million in 1997 to $20.9 million in 1998, primarily due to a reduction in
spending associated with the inn renewal program. Expenditures for property and
equipment in 1998 include the acquisition of one development site for a total
cost of $0.5 million and $16.3 million related to renovations and improvements
on 20 development sites and eight properties which have been acquired or under
construction since 1996.

         Net cash provided by financing activities decreased $15.7 million from
$18.8 million in 1997 to $3.1 million in 1998, primarily as the result of
reduced borrowings under the bank credit facility to fund the Company's
expansion and inn renewal programs.

EBITDA

         EBITDA is operating income plus the sum of interest income, other
income, depreciation and amortization. EBITDA increased $8.6 million from $13.8
million in 1997 to $22.4 in 1998. EBITDA in 1997 includes a special charge of
$4.8 million related to the inn renewal program. Had such special charge not
been incurred, EBITDA would have

been $18.6 million in 1997. EBITDA is not intended to represent cash flow from
operations as defined by generally accepted accounting principles, and such
information should not be considered as an alternative to net income, cash flow
from operations or an other measure of performance prescribed by generally
accepted accounting principles. EBITDA is included herein because management
believes that certain investors find it to be a useful tool for measuring the
ability to service debt and fund the Company's operations.
