La Quinta is a great hotel chain to look into if you want to bring your pet along. They have more than 830 locations in the U.S., and only four of those don't allow pets. Up to two cats or dogs are allowed in all guest rooms at no extra charge. The only thing is that you have to be present during housekeeping if the pets are in the room.

Many Days Inn locations are pet friendly, but not all of them, so you do need to call the location of your choice to confirm. You'll also need to check the pet weight limits and the number of pets allowed. If they do allow pets, they typically charge a fee starting at $10 each night.

Loews has a whole program dedicated to pets called Lowes Loves Pets, so you know they're definitely a great option! They allow two pets per room and require up-to-date vaccinations. They sometimes charge a fee for extra cleaning as well. But with all of that comes some great perks. At check-in, pets get treats, bowls, and place mats. They can also provide you with pet beds, litter boxes, scratching posts, pet toys, and more.

They charge a maximum of $20 per day, with a maximum of $100 per week.

Kimpton Hotels has 59 properties across the U.S., and they allow any kind of pet to stay, not just dogs. Even better? There's no charge. They also offer tons of amenities and courtesies, like greeting your pet by name; including plush pet bed loaners, food, water bowls, and mats; recommendations for nearby pet-friendly restaurants and parks, groomers, and pet boutiques; dog hanger alerts so the staff knows your pets are inside; and courtesy bags for dog-walking. There also isn't a size and weight limit!

They even allow pets in some of their locations in countries other than the U.S.

With more than 500 pet-friendly properties (only three don't accept pets), the Red Roof Inn chain is a pretty great option. The best part is that they don't charge extra nightly fees or deposits.

You're allowed one family pet weighing 80 pounds or less, the pet has to be declared at registration, and they can't be left unattended in the guest room.

Motel 6 allows up to two pets per room, although some locations don't, so make sure you call first. You just have to make sure your pet isn't disruptive, or you can be asked to leave.

On their website, Courtyard Marriott says, "At Courtyard, pets know they won't be treated like second-class citizens.
