Thinking the same Rodders, close, within stumbling distance of Casino ;D
Obviously I"ve never stayed there but it looked like the double rooms were adequate. Check with Tighty he"s stayed there and will give you the lowdown.

Scrub that, just spoken to BobaFett who advises that the etap is the equiv to a bunkbed in a multistorey car park ;-)

Back in the Betfair days myself and the Stockton Rock stayed there as we had binked the free bar weekend. We run well.
The place is very odd though.
We booked a twin room.. which consisted of a double bed with some steps to like a single bed stuck to the wall above the pillows length ways above the double... I went for the single and only discovered after a drunken hike later up the steps the nice stains up there.. OH and then there was the dead fly which was stuck to the loo roll haha.
It is however across the carpark from the casino so couldnt bebettercloser.
Gary Palmer rang me saying he"d booked us a room for the weekend. A twin. Yay. Then he told me it was at the Etap. Sigh. Might bring my own loo roll this time x
Yay - you going up on the Friday I assume Mr TC?

Nice one ! Mine was subject to the restrictions or Avios (air miles) and the only flight I could get to Glasgow was late Friday night returning Monday night. It"s only an hour on the train and would have to get a train from Glasgow Airport anyway so not the end of the world. Have a safe journey and enjoy Friday night shame I will miss it :(
