Good spots to check out would be the Hotel Northland, Hampton, or Hyatt regency will put you in the center of the Downtown area. Downtown hotels will be a tad cheaper than stuff near the Stadium. The average places will be $250-300 a night minimum if you can find rooms. You will get what you pay for, but understand the baseline low levels (like The Day's Inn) will be charging $150-200+ a night.

Honestly, get the idea of 'reasonably priced' hotels out of mind.
