In The Chronicle[]
After Ambrose bribes and threatens all the local inns not to employ Kvothe, Anker's is the only inn that will accept Kvothe's service. Kvothe lives at Anker's throughout most of the novels in a small room in the upstairs portion of Anker's Inn. He comes to think of his room here as home more than any other place he stays. His tendency to come back late, caused him to developed a secret way into his room, which he shows only to Denna and Auri.
