Writing house rules that guests actually follow

What house rules should an Airbnb have?
The most common ones cover smoking, parties and extra guests, quiet hours, check-in/checkout times, pets, and how to treat the space (rubbish, energy, locking up). Keep the list short and specific — guests skim, so lead with the rules that matter most to you.
How many house rules is too many?
Aim for the essentials plus a few house-specific ones — most good rule sets land between 6 and 12. A wall of rules feels unwelcoming and gets ignored; a focused list gets read.
Is this generator free?
Yes. Tick the rules that apply, add your own, preview live, then print or save as a PDF. No account, no card.
Where do guests actually see the rules?
A printed list on the fridge is easy to miss. A digital guidebook keeps your rules a tap away on the guest’s phone for the whole stay — guests can even add it to their home screen — and the Stay Assistant answers questions like “can I check in early?” straight from them.

Put your rules where guests will read them

Turn this list into a digital guidebook your guests open on their phone — and add to their home screen — with a Stay Assistant that answers their questions 24/7. Free 3-month trial, no card required.
