I wish to have time with my husband

My husband leaves for Lochinvar School in Nashville Tn on August 19th thru the 21st. He wants me to go with him and I'd love to go. We have 5 children and rarely get to spend time alone together. His school would pay for him but since I may be going they won't pay for our room. I would LOVE LOVE to go with him and maybe have a dinner out somewhere, oh it would be so quiet and nice!
I've recently went thru some things this week and this would help me out so much in just getting away for a couple of days.
Is there anyone who could help us get a room for just 2 nights, it doesn't have to be an expensive place. The original hotel he would stay at is $129 a night but they have transportation for him to and from school (I can't afford that) so if we stay somewheres else he would have to take my van- which I don't mind up until the last day (Friday) due to check out, may be able to see if I can get extended time so I don't end up without a room until he gets back around 3:30.
Even if we can get a family/friend rate or something to help us out financially. and maybe a restaurant gift card so we can enjoy one dinner out by ourselves..
any help would be very much appreciated!! Thank you for reading my wish today

PS: I don't need the money..
If someone would be willing to help out online that would be great..
or know someone who works at a hotel downtown Nashville that could get us a decent rate would also be great
