- Clearly state in your listing description that parties and events are not allowed.
- Specify a maximum number of guests for your space.
- Inform guests about appropriate parking locations.
- Display your house rules and any building rules prominently at your place.
- Let your neighbors know when guests will be staying at your listing.
