Can a room with a closet but no window be considered a bedroom?

Tara Lipinski
Home Buyer
Sugar Land, TX

We're looking in Sugar Land and one of the houses we are considering has a windowless room in the corner of the 2nd story (with a closet) and they're advertising it as a 4-5 bedroom! Can they do that legally? Doesn't it have to have a window?
