Some questions about a hotel project in Tennessee. It has 103 rooms, but only 5 ADA rooms (ADA requires 7 - 5 without roll-in showers, and 2 with roll-in showers). which are all on the first floor and in one wing. It will now be converted into an extended stay with the addition of a kitchenette and refrigerator. The new appliances will have the requisite clearances. The laundry area will also be expanded and will have the requisite clearances. The interiors may be changed. By and large, these are the alterations. They don't involve moving/constructing/demo-ing walls.
My questions are:
1. Will these alterations trigger the whole facility brought up to ADA compliance for A) Number of ADA rooms; B) Dispersion of the rooms across the facility by floor and room type; C) Provision of roll-in showers; D) Swimming pool access alterations
2. Does the entire facility need to comply with FHA? If so, do we need to look only at clearances as in Type A and Type B dwelling units (which may not be difficult with the clearances)?
Thanks in advance for your responses!
