Controlled access is a vague narration, may be to serve members of selected families, who could afford to dine and wine at level 1 hotels

Very good decision to serve liquor to the inmates in these hotels. Nobody can complains that rich are consuming liquor. They are blessed for such.if you look into such things your list will be very long. Let them enjoy without disturbing others like in bubble concept.
