Representatives of the Guyana Gaming Authority yesterday visited the US$20M Sleepin Hotel and Carnival Casino on Church Street to conduct a site visit and according to businessman Clifton Bacchus he was asked a number of questions relating to the installation of slot machines and other matters.
Bacchus told Stabroek News that the group inspected the hotel rooms, the casino, conference room and other facilities.
The inspection is part of the process in addressing an application for a casino licence. Bacchus had applied previously but the application was rejected by the Authority for his failure to comply with stipulated requirements. He applied a second time and it is this application which prompted the visit.
