LA Marathon Hotel Suggestions (Read 25 times)

I'm toying with making the 2020 LA Marathon my first marathon!  But I don't want to commit until I know financially what my commitment will be.  Does anyone know of good, cheap hotels near the finish line?  I know hotels in LA are expensive so I might be priced out of this race   I know certain hotels give discounts for people participating in the marathon but you don't have access to those hotels or what the discount is until you officially register and I don't want to officially register if it turns out that all of the hotels are too expensive and I won't be able to attend.  Any insight as to good hotels to stay in for the LA Marathon and estimated pricing would be greatly appreciated!  Thanks!
