If you can, check where you can walk the dogs. Doing a "last call" in the parking lot among the trash cans is, well, yuckky.

I've stayed in several Super 8's that allow pets, but not all of them do. You'd have to check.

I believe that all La Quinta Inns allow pets, but again, I'm not 100% sure.

Probably depends, but I'm in Canada. My DH and I recently did a cross country trip with Dakota and we found Comfort Inn to be the best. They didn't require crating at the ones we went to. I found them clean and well maintained.

Plus they have a darn good continental breakfast. My DH and I still miss those! Toast, Waffles, Hardboiled eggs, muffins, english muffins, cereal, fruit ect.

Red Roof Inns accept dogs without a deposit which I appreciate. Their policy says one dog only, but they have been known to make exceptions.

We "hotel - it" whenever we go to the river on boating weekends. Microtel is our common choice, though I'm not sure how many are around. They have a wide open arms pet policy . (But don't you dare light a cigarette...that's a $200 fine!) I know that the BestWestern allows small dogs too, but we like our Microtel!

Our most recent river trip was Buster's first run. We...

He'd be in a crate when someone wasn't there with him. Thanks for the pointer...a room with easy outdoor access would certainly be key.

There are a bunch of websites that list all dog-friendly hotels --- www.petswelcome.com; dogfriendly.com...and I think even on hotels.com you can do a search.

Generally speaking, in my experience, Best Westerns, Comfort Inns and Econolodges take dogs if they are crated, and you pay a deposit. Even when I make the reservations online, I generally call the hotel and let them know that I will have a dog --- that way, if there is a room that has direct access to a grassy area, they can...

I'm going to be traveling and need dog-friendly hotel ideas. I'm looking for something that's clean & a reasonable cost. I'll be working near an airport, so most any ideas you could throw my way would be usable.

I could really use the suggestions! Thanks in advance!
