Why did he write it in his bedroom? Did he not have a living room or some other more appropriate room?

I do everything in my bedroom when I get a chance, it's easily one of the more comfortable, cool (temperature-wise) and quieter rooms in the house.

Even though I technically have a more "appropriate" workspace available, I just don't like it. I piled a lot of my hardware in one corner of the bedroom, the bed in another, occasionally use a display to watch a movie in bed with the boyfriend. Surprisingly the noise has not yet been a problem, but the hardware in question is usually two laptops and a mac mini and a drobo, all typically pretty quiet. I have a monster of a tower for gaming, but that's usually not left on while we're sleeping.

It's all a matter of preference.
