lodger
Rents a room
A lodger is a person who rents a room in someone else's home, typically with some shared facilities like a kitchen or bathroom.
Unlike a tenant who rents an entire property, a lodger lives within the landlord's residence: She took in a lodger to help with the mortgage.
The arrangement implies a more informal or domestic situation than a standard lease.
