At LifeX, we understand this is your home, and naturally, you may want to invite loved ones over. That’s completely fine β€” we just ask that you follow a few basic guidelines to ensure a respectful and harmonious experience for all housemates.


πŸ‘¨β€πŸ‘©β€πŸ‘§β€πŸ‘¦ Friends & Family Visits

🍝 Day Visits

You're welcome to invite friends and family for lunch, dinner, or a casual hangout. Just be sure to:

  • Give your housemates a heads-up

  • Be mindful of noise after 10 PM

  • Use common areas with closing doors for social gatherings, or consider heading out to a bar or cafΓ©

πŸ‘Ά Children

Children are welcome during the day, but overnight stays are not allowed.

🐢 Pets

For hygiene and allergy reasons, pets are not allowed in any LifeX apartment β€” even for short visits.


πŸŒ™ Overnight Stays

πŸ‘« Partners (2–3 times per week)

  • Romantic partners can stay over occasionally (max. 2–3 nights a week)

  • Always communicate with your housemates and ensure they’re comfortable with the frequency

  • The idea is to avoid changing the house dynamic or reducing shared comfort

πŸ‘ͺ Family or Friends (Short visits, less than 7 days)

  • Allowed on a one-off basis for a few days (max. 7 consecutive nights)

  • Inform housemates in advance

  • The same guest can’t stay more than once a month unless you inform the LifeX team, who will assess on a case-by-case basis

β›Ί Longer stays (7+ days)

  • Must be approved by LifeX beforehand

  • Needs the consent of your housemates in co-living setups

  • These visits should be infrequent to maintain house comfort and dynamics


⚠️ Important Reminders

πŸ”‘ You must already live in the apartment to welcome guests.
🏑 Vacant rooms cannot be used by guests under any circumstances β€” they are reserved for future members.
πŸ›οΈ Some apartments have a guest mattress and duvet available β€” not all, so please check with us in advance if you'd like to borrow one.


βœ… In Short: Respect & Communication

We want everyone to feel at home β€” including your guests β€” but also your housemates. With a little communication and consideration, we can make LifeX a great place to live for everyone πŸ’š
