If a husband thinks that the staying of wife’s parents or someone from her immediate family (who cannot marry her) is not appropriate and wants to stop them from staying at his place, can he do that?

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by ShariahBoard.org
If a husband thinks that the staying of wife’s parents or someone from her immediate family (who cannot marry her) is not appropriate and wants to stop them from staying at his place, can he do that? Similarly, if a wife is not comfortable with her husband’s parents staying with her can she ask him to make a separate arrangement for them? And if she asks is the husband obliged to listen to her?
If the husband doesn’t think someone’s staying at the house is appropriate then he can stop that person. Also, if the wife can stay with the parents of her husband then its better otherwise it’s obligatory for the husband to provide a separate accommodation for his wife.
