If you choose the kind you inflate manually, they are usually lightweight and do not take much time to inflate or deflate. There are also self-inflating mats that are slightly more expensive but give you the added convenience of not having to take the time to inflate them yourself.
Finally, you can purchase a foam mat or latex mattress which is cheap and lightweight. The foam type of mat keeps you warm, but may not be as comfortable as the inflatable ones.
