LGBT-Welcoming vs. Childfree hotels

As we all know, there is no "Childfree" checkbox listed in Expedia options, so let's research more on how we can use "LGBT-Welcoming" option for best results.


Numbers and facts:
624 hotels in LA and vicinity (I checked some random dates in March, like 6 weeks form now)
out of which 27 hotels are LGBT-Welcoming.


Sorted them by price and dug deeper into every 3d (27/3 equals 9).

Walls Motel Long Beach
Guests must be at least 21 years old to check in at this property.
Rooms under 70$.

DoubleTree by Hilton Los Angeles - Commerce
Minimum guest age is 21. 
Pet policy - dogs and cats only. Maximum number of pets per room - 2. 
Pet maximum weight in lb is 20.
Price per room 90-100$.

Queen Mary Hotel
There are no room charges for children 17 years old and younger who occupy the same room as their parents or guardians, using existing bedding. Guests can arrange to bring pets by contacting the property directly.
Rooms under $120. 

The Hotel of Hollywood

There are no room charges for children 17 years old and younger who occupy the same room as their parents or guardians, using existing bedding.
Pet fee: USD 35 per pet, per night (maximum USD 245.00 per stay)
Pet maximum weight in kg is 15.
Noise-free rooms not guaranteed.
Minimum Spring Break check-in age is 18 years old.  
Caters to singles, couples, seniors, families, groups. 
Under $130. 

My favorite is The Hotel of Hollywood - everyone is welcome with exception of bigger pets.
More hotels in higher price range listed below.  

My bet would be something else though.

Angry birds for pets

I love my new kitten. His is a graceful hunter, a tender partner, fun to watch, pet and take care of. I like to see him walk, run and jump (he goes up the Tree!), chase his tail, make a toy out of anything in view: brown bags, nuts and bolts, suitcases and fringe.

I like Angry Birds (tm). Now my kitten plays with Angry Birds Bells (on the left)  and Angry Birds Frisbee.

Hartz® Angry Birds® Birds Gone Crazy™
Comes from Hartz (pet products with love), sold at Costco, Walmart, Amazon.com, CVS. I bought my frisbee at pet section of local supermarket (somewhere between canned cat food for kittens and canned cat food for adult cats).

Hartz® Angry Birds® Tuff Stuff™ Flyer
                                               Angry Birds Flyer (Frisbee) is double sided with a red bird on one side and a green pig on the other. It's fun to joggle (well, that's for human) and it swivels nicely once put on bird's nose on hard floor. My kitten is still skittish around it (well, the bird is same size if not bigger) but when he dares to attack it fun to watch.
