The bill amends Arkansas law regarding public lodging by establishing a specific bed height requirement for mobility accessible rooms. It mandates that new lodging establishments must provide beds that are no more than twenty-three inches in height from the floor to the top of the mattress, regardless of whether the mattress is compressed. This requirement aims to enhance accessibility for individuals with mobility challenges.

For existing lodging establishments, compliance with the bed height requirement is only necessary when a mobility accessible room undergoes an upgrade or reaches the end of its life cycle. This provision allows for a phased approach to implementation, ensuring that older facilities can adapt to the new standard without immediate overhaul.
