Direct answer

Check a continuous usable route from drop-off or parking to the entrance, seating, washroom and other essential areas.

Ask the guest what access they need and walk the route after the proposed layout is considered. Look beyond the presence of a ramp: doors, surfaces, turns and blocked passages can still prevent access. Confirm staff assistance without assuming a wheelchair user can be carried. The cited accessibility guidance offers planning principles, not a claim that US legal specifications are Pakistani law.
