My wife and I had a couple of rented out rooms in our four bedroom house when we were first married. It wasn't a big deal for us. We were all in grad school in different disciplines. It was kind of nice in that it was like having built-in friends.
It was easier for us because the renters had their own bathroom.
As was mentioned before, I'd be wary of a potential breakup separating the couple and your agreed on lease. Also talk through before hand who pays for what. They may have the idea that they'll pay half the rent since they are only occupying 1 of the 2 bedrooms. Sounds silly, but I've seen it before.
