This bill amends the law regarding public lodging in Arkansas by establishing a bed height requirement for mobility accessible rooms. Specifically, it mandates that new lodging establishments must furnish mobility accessible rooms with beds that do not exceed twenty-three inches in height from the floor to the top of the mattress, regardless of whether the mattress is compressed.

For existing lodging establishments, compliance with this bed height requirement is only necessary when a mobility accessible room undergoes an upgrade or reaches the end of its life cycle. This legislation aims to enhance accessibility for individuals with mobility challenges by ensuring that bed heights in lodging facilities are suitable for their needs.
