Guest & occupancy limits in Pennsylvania

In buildings and complexes with three or more households, tenants have a right to have social guests, family or visitors for a reasonable period of time, and service providers of their choosing. The landlord may not charge any fee, service charge or extra rent for this, and a lease cannot waive it.
