We have prepared an excerpt of the house rules that are of particular interest to residents who wish to entertain guests. This summary is also good to provide to guests to ensure compliance. Note that owners will be held liable for the noncompliance of their guests and tenants, and the guests of their tenants. Please see our House Rules page for the complete rules.
