You can of course invite your friends to the property, you are at home! However, you must coordinate so that everyone can see their friends without creating inconvenience. It is therefore necessary that you agree among yourselves on how to invite your friends. To invite up to two people during the day, you do not need to ask for permission from your community, but simply inform them; beyond two guests, you must speak about it and obtain the agreement of the community (in order not to disturb the peace of the other residents, you commit yourself not to receive more than 7 nights per month a third person, and your guests must spend the night in your private space and not in the common). Please note that the destination of the premises provides for an exclusive residential clause which prohibits any commercial or liberal activity.
