Is this unwise?

everyone is GE/precheck in the party, no bags checked most likely
I'm not sure what your definition of "reasonably" priced is, but have you checked hotels in Center City? I've generally found the price/quality ratio there to be excellent over the years. A few years back I stayed at the Residence Inn right across the street from City Hall for no more than $120/night the weekend before Christmas.
