Motel 6
Why we like itUp to two dogs or cats stay free when they weigh 150 pounds together.
Motel 6 says it does not charge pet fees. The page generally doesn’t set breed or size restrictions beyond that combined weight, and it describes the welcome as every location in the US and Canada, and also as participating locations. Pets stay in the room with you. Studio 6, named on the reservation policy, is a different stay at $10 a day, up to $100.

The Hoxton
Why we like itOne dog stays for no extra fee, and a bigger dog than 40 pounds may be welcome if you ask.
Chicago’s Fulton Market, Williamsburg in Brooklyn, Portland, and Downtown LA each publish the same welcome: one dog per room, up to 40 pounds, for no extra fee. Please don’t leave them in the room alone unless you’ve told reception. If the room is damaged or very messy, a cleaning or repair charge applies at checkout.

Sunnyvale, California
Treehouse
Why we like itYour four-legged co-pilot stays free. The page says no pet fees, no fuss.
The Silicon Valley hotel page says the same thing, at 1100 North Mathilda Avenue in Sunnyvale. Damage or extra cleaning can still be charged, and pets should stay with you. The hotels page lists London, Manchester, and Silicon Valley, and it describes Brickell and Miami Beach as still to come.

Low pet fees
When the free-stay chains aren’t the trip you want, two familiar brands publish a smaller charge.
Red Roof Inn and PLUS+
Red Roof
Why we like itThe first pet stays free, which makes a one-dog trip an easy yes.
Red Roof Inn and Red Roof PLUS+ welcome two dogs or cats, up to 80 pounds each. There’s no pet deposit and no extra cleaning fee at check-in. A second pet is $15 a night, and that charge stops at $105 for the pet on stays of seven nights or more. More than two is only if the hotel agrees, at the same nightly rate. Please don’t leave a pet alone unless it’s an emergency and you’ve told the front desk. HomeTowne Studios and The Red Collection set their own rules, and two named hotels don’t take pets: Red Roof PLUS+ Washington DC – Oxon Hill, and Red Roof Inn & Suites Philadelphia – Bellmawr.

Wyndham
La Quinta
Why we like itUp to two pets, with an optional fee that tops out at $75 for the stay.
La Quinta says an optional pet fee may be charged at check-in: $25 a night, and no more than $75 per room for the stay. If a cat is coming, bring a litter box. Some hotels set a weight limit, so a quick call when you book is worthwhile. A few hotels on their list don’t take pets, including Brooklyn, Queens, New York City near Central Park, Dallas, Inglewood, and White Plains.
