    And, at least in the movies, the common areas have nice comfortable couches. At 3 AM, who would know? Commented Jul 9, 2014 at 23:17

    @WhatRoughBeast: Well in the third book, the quidditch afterparty went somehow too loud. McGonagall found that out somehow. So perhaps the common room is not that private after all. And furthermore isn't 3 AM more or less the time when house elves clean up the common room? Commented Jul 10, 2014 at 9:00
