+1 to this, given your revised statement about being on a tight budget.
As you say, S. Fla is 3 hrs more on the road, that's 1/3 less day for playing. Play cash @ THR, Derby Lane for tourneys. S. Fla is also more expensive in general, from my understanding.
Not too sure about the motel situation, but I'd look to stay on the other side of the bridge in St. Pete for safety's sake. Pretty sure the area surrounding THR isn't the best.
If it's this weekend, the weather should be gorgeous. That God-awful tropical storm that hung around dumping rain on us all for days is finally moving out. Anytime one of those storms go by, it takes all the moisture with it, leaving 3-4 days of gorgeous, sunny weather (except the humidity, which of course spikes).
Have fun
