ITEM 1                     SECURITY AND ISSUER

         On April 17, 1996, Host Funding, Inc., a Maryland corporation (the
"Issuer" or the "Company") completed its initial public offering (the "Public
Offering") in which the Company sold 500,000 shares of its Class A Common Stock.
Prior to the Public Offering, Mr. Guy E. Hatfield, Mrs. Dorothy Hatfield and All
American Group, Ltd. (the "Hatfield Affiliates") owned 100 shares of the
Company's initial common stock (the "Initial Shares") representing 100% of the
Company's securities. Upon the closing of the Public Offering on April 22, 1996,
the Hatfield Affiliates exchanged (the "Hatfield Exchange") the Initial Shares
for 410,000 shares of Class A Common Stock, 140,000 shares of Class B Common
Stock, and 140,000 shares of Class C Common Stock.

         The Class B Common Stock is convertible into Class A Common Stock upon
the payment of dividends to the holders of the Class B Common Stock for a period
of thirty six (36) consecutive months. The Class C Common Stock is convertible
into the Class A Common Stock beginning on January 1, 1997. Therefore, the Class
B and Class C Common Stock is not included in the number of shares of Class A
Common Stock included in this Schedule 13D.

         Also on April 22, 1996, the Company acquired the Mission Bay Super 8
hotel (the "Mission Bay Acquisition") from Mission Bay Super 8, Ltd., a
California limited partnership. Mr. and Mrs. Hatfield received 3,737 shares of
the Company's Class A Common Stock in the Mission Bay Acquisition.

are set forth below:

ITEM 3       SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION

         The Hatfield Affiliates received the Initial Shares in exchange for
their contribution to the Company of four Super 8 hotels on April 1, 1995. On
April 22, 1996, the Hatfield Affiliates exchanged the Initial Shares for 410,000
shares of Class A Common Stock, 140,000 shares of Class B Common Stock, and
140,000 shares of Class C Common Stock. The transaction was a stock-for-stock
exchange and there was no exchange of money or other consideration.

         Also on April 22, 1996, Mr. and Mrs. Hatfield received 3,737 shares of
the Company's Class A Common Stock in exchange for their interests in Mission
Bay Super 8, Ltd., a California limited partnership.

ITEM 4            PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION

         The Hatfield Affiliates acquired the Company's securities as part of a
series of transactions (the "Formation Transactions") which constituted the
first stage of the Company's growth strategy. As described above, the Company
closed its initial Public Offering on April 22, 1996 and the Hatfield Exchange
was part of the Formation Transactions.

         The Hatfield Affiliates have no current plan to acquire additional
shares of the Company's Common Stock. On April 22, 1996, the Hatfield Affiliates
entered into a holdback agreement (the "Holdback Agreement") with the Company
whereby the Hatfield Affiliates agreed not to sell or otherwise dispose of any
of the securities owned by the Hatfield Affiliates for a period of 12 months (a
copy of the Holdback Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit A).

         None of the Hatfield Affiliates have any plans or proposals which would
relate to or result in:

         a.       The acquisition by any person of additional securities of the
                  Company, or the disposition of securities of the Company;

         b.       An extraordinary corporate transaction, such as a merger,
                  reorganization or liquidation, involving the Company or any of
                  its subsidiaries;

         c.       A sale or transfer of a material amount of assets of the
                  Company or any of its subsidiaries;

         d.       Any change in the present board of trustees or management of
                  the Company including any plans or proposals to change the
                  number or terms of board of directors or to fill any existing
                  vacancies on the board;

         e.       Any material change in the present capitalization or
                  distribution policy of the Company;

         f.       Any other material change in the Company's business or
                  corporate structure;

                  corresponding thereto or other actions which may impede the
                  acquisition of control of the Company by any person;

         h.       Causing a class of securities of the Company to be delisted
                  from any national securities exchange or to cease to be
                  authorized to be quoted in an inter-dealer quotation system of
                  a registered national securities association;

         i.       A class of equity securities of the Company becoming eligible
                  for termination of registration pursuant to Section 12(g)(4)
                  of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934; or

         j.       Any action similar to any of those enumerated above.

                  the last 60 days.

         d.       No other person is known to have the right to receive or the

                               HOLD-BACK AGREEMENT

         THIS HOLD-BACK AGREEMENT ("Agreement") is entered into by and between
GUY HATFIELD, acting on behalf of himself and the Hatfield Affiliates
("Hatfield"), and LA JOLLA SECURITIES CORPORATION ("La Jolla") as of this 22nd
day of April 1996. The term "Hatfield Affiliates" shall have the same meaning as
ascribed to it in that certain Registration Statement on Form S-11, as amended
(SEC File No. 33-92772), filed by Host Funding, Inc., a Maryland corporation
(the "Company").

                                 R E C I T A L S

         WHEREAS, the Company proposes to offer and sell (the "Offering") up to
500,000 shares of Class A common stock, $.01 par value, to La Jolla and certain
other underwriters pursuant to an Underwriting Agreement between the Company and
La Jolla dated April 17, 1996 ("Underwriting Agreement").

         WHEREAS, Section 3(r) of the Underwriting Agreement provides as
follows:

         (r)      The Company shall arrange for each of its officers, directors
                  and affiliates of the Company to agree in writing not to sell
                  any shares of the Common Stock of the Company for a period of
                  one (1) year from the effective date of the Registration
                  Statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Guy and Dorothy
                  Hatfield ("Hatfield") shall be entitled to pledge their
                  securities ("Collateral Shares") of the Company as collateral
                  for any indebtedness they have incurred or may incur, and in
                  the event of their default under the terms of such
                  indebtedness neither the foreclosure on the Collateral Shares
                  or their resale by the pledgee shall be a breach of this
                  paragraph (r).

         NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises and covenants
herein contained, the parties hereto agree as follows:
