House rules
Although the house rules are mentioned in the advertisements and the guest must agree to them before he can book, it is wise to print these and put them on the table. It is possible that only the main booker has read the house rules online and the rest of the guests have not. Express this in a friendly manner in a welcome letter to draw the guests' attention to this.
