Dear Mr. Dale:

      We have reviewed your response letter dated May 27, 2005 and
have the following additional comments.  In our comments, we ask
you
to provide us with supplemental information so we may better
understand your disclosure.  After reviewing this information, we
may
or may not raise additional comments.

      Please understand that the purpose of our review process is
to
assist you in your compliance with the applicable disclosure
requirements and to enhance the overall disclosure in your filing.
We look forward to working with you in these respects.  We welcome
any questions you may have about our comments or on any other
aspect
of our review.  Feel free to call us at the telephone numbers
listed
at the end of this letter.

Note 12  Sale of Hotels and Plan for Future Hotel Dispositions,
page
F-29

1. We note your response to our previous comment number one.  If
the
basis for reporting the proceeds from the sale of these hotels
gross
is because you are developing and constructing the hotels for
sale,
explain why you are not reporting hotels under development as a
separate line item on your balance sheet.  In addition, your
impairment policy should be revised to address how you assess and
recognize impairment for properties under development.  Refer to
paragraphs B122 and B123 of SFAS 144.  Further, explain why the
sales
of AmeriHost Inn hotels are not accounted for as discontinued
operations under SFAS 144.   Refer to the guidelines of EITF 03-13
in
your response and also address whether these hotels produce cash
flows to you through their operations prior to their sale.  If you
are operating these hotels prior to

their sale and they are providing operating cash flows, explain
why
you believe these hotels should be classified as hotels under
development and correspondingly why the proceeds from their sales
should be reported as revenues rather than net as gain or loss on
sale.

2. In your response to our previous comment number two you state
"this obligation was contingent since the Company had the option
to
pay higher rent rather than pay PMC the Assigned Value shortfall,
if
any, upon the sale of a hotel pursuant to this amendment." Tell us
if
you paid higher rent during this period.

Note 14 - Commitments, Contingencies and Other Matters, page F-33:

3. We note your response to our previous comments four through
six.
Please provide us with a schedule showing your accounting for the
conversion of the 17 hotels from an operating lease to a capital
lease.  Specifically, show the amount of the loss recognized in
the
reduction in fair market value that was considered in the
recordation
of the capital leases.  Please provide the balance sheet activity
and
statement of operations activity by line item for this transaction
and the subsequent activity in these accounts for 2004, including
the
Arlington Fee and Proceeds Deficit Notes.

      Please respond to the comments included in this letter
within
ten business days.  If you have any questions, you may contact
Thomas
Flinn, Staff Accountant, at (202) 551-3469 or the undersigned at
(202) 551-3498 if you have questions.

      							Sincerely,

      							Linda Van Doorn
Senior Assistant Chief Accountant
