I agree, especially when going as a vendor.
I stayed at the Quality Inn and Suites which was about a mile from the
Needmore exit. Room was 90 bucks, access to great restaurants, etc. I will
probably book there again, I think it was $90 a night.
I do not drink and if going as a vendor I certainly do not have the body
nor energy got nitelife so it worked out really well (except that 735AM
flight on Sunday).
