I'm up to Episode 5, and it appears that the room serves the function of what Catholics call a confessional. Guests appear to either confront or escape deeply concealed guilt.
The room itself appears to coerce this, whether or not the guest is willing, and in spite of all self-justification. And, so far, nobody is innocent. Very creepy invitation to leave one's defenses at the door, and subject oneself to the harshest possible scrutiny ... in private.
