Rules read better as requests with a reason. 'Please keep noise down after 10 pm so our neighbors stay friendly' gets more cooperation than 'NO NOISE AFTER 10'. Keep the list on one page.
Put them in three places
Add the rules to your listing, send them in the pre-arrival message, and print them in the welcome book on the counter. Guests can't follow rules they never saw.
