hotel visa and then check out

Quick question: a friend got a hotel visa through one of the hotels here. The hotel requires a 3 day stay minimum, and he will stay there for those 3 days. The visa is valid for a month.

However, he wants to stay for another week after that. Can he just check out of the hotel and stay at somebody's place and then leave? Staying at a hotel for those 10 days is expensive.

The hotel says you have to stay at their hotel the whole time, but wanted to know if the above was possible. Thanks.

You cannot check out , you under the sponsor ship of the hotel , so if u leave , or your friend leaves , and for example commits a crime , the hotel is liable , so they need to keep you in their custody for now.
