Looking to help people displaced by fire-related evacuations, numerous hotels in L.A. County and in Temecula continued Thursday to offer discounted rates and accept guests with pets.

As tens of thousands seek shelter from the wildfires ravaging Los Angeles, the short-term rental site Airbnb has made free rooms available to evacuees and major hotels are extending discounted rates to displaced residents.

State law prohibits businesses from boosting prices on hotels by more than 10% for 30 days after a local or state agency has declared an emergency.
