UFC 4-720-01 is the Unified Facilities Criteria for Lodging Facilities, current as of 13 February 2012 [UFC 4-720-01].

Purpose and scope: This UFC provides planning and design criteria for lodging facilities across the Department of Defense. It supersedes AFSDG 4-724-01 (Design: Visiting Quarters, dated 21 June 2005) [UFC 4-720-01].

Application: AF Inns facility construction must conform to DoD UFC 4-720-01, or to state and local building codes applicable at the time of facility construction or major renovation, to the same extent as DoD privatized lodging facilities [DAFMAN 34-135 para 5.1.4].
