I'm not sure what you consider cheap but the Moonrise Hotel and The Chesire are both excellent non-chain hotels with great staff and service in a safe area. I've also heard good things about Clayton Plaza Hotel and the Seven Gables Inn. Moonrise and Chesire are both closer to more activities though and are in safe neighborhoods.
Seconding this! Can confirm that the Moonrise is excellent and is close to WashU's campus.
