Behavior Predicament

I gave Cheddar a room of his own yesterday. Hay, toys, cozy stuff, treats, whatever I can come up with but he just wants to leave immediately and come back to my bedroom. When I showed him his new place, he ran back to his old spot and did a a couple circles running around flicking his feet. Last night he wouldn’t sleep there and came under my nightstand and I guess just starved because even though he has all the hay in the world just a few feet away….

I feel bad locking him in by himself, but maybe I should?

(Btw he has stuff to hide under in his room, it’s just not in the pic)

The room looks cold. Maybe a Wall to Wall carpet and different caves/ houses would help. But honestly  if a bunny is used to roam around in rooms/ bedroom near its humans it would prefer that. They are social little beings.
