No it doesn't. It's a licence arrangement not a tenancy.

Didn't think so.

What do you mean by license agreement.

It means that whoever is renting the room is not a tenant. They are a paying guest. They have little or no protection under legislation, and can be told to pack up and jog on at a moment's notice.
