In previous years I've booked at The Pickwick: it's about 2 blocks away, but
off the beaten path. It's run me as little as $89/night, which for the
immediate area around the conference center is great.

There's plenty of fast food within walking distance if they're willing to
eat gross stuff. For really good, slightly better food, I like Wichcraft,
which is right around the corner and runs about $11 for lunch IIRC.

Can't help you there (assuming you've looked at the IGDA Scholars program
and the CA (conference associate) program).
