Thinking of renting out den in 1br

I just moved from Bethesda to a newly renovated 1BR & den apt in Tyson's...I actually wanted a studio but there were none available so I went with the 1br. The den is basically the size of a small room, and I really don't need this much space. I'd like to rent it for $500-600/mo. Do apartment complexes usually restrict this? 

When I filled out all of my paperwork, they had me sign a document stating that there'd never be more than 2 people living in the apartment. They never mentioned anything about renting out rooms. Assuming I can do this, what advice would you give me when looking for tenants? I'm assuming I can't add them to the lease, and if not it seems pretty sketchy to me. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
