The other cheap way to get tickets (if you have a few people that can share it) was a deal they were running with Purina where you got 4 tickets, 4 drinks, and a couple popcorns for $75. The tickets are good for one session, so you can get it each day they are playing. We did it a few years ago and were right behind the Loyola section (not in it) and it was a good deal. Plus you are not stuck with a whole weekend of tickets in case things don't go our way. Not sure if they are doing it in 2022 but will keep an eye out.

any of the downtown hotels near the arena are great. and within walking distance of ballpark village and more importantly the bar, the Wheelhouse, which hopefully will continue to host Loyola fan pre- and post-game festivities
