Tonks:

I saw that comment as a way of telling us, the reader, that Harry 
was going to be going back to school and finish out the rest of his 
schooling at Hogwarts. And since Kreacher is a house-elf at Hogwarts 
it would make sense for him to bring Harry a sandwich. The MAIN 
point of that sentence was that Harry was going back up to his 
bedroom in the dorm. This implies that he was going to be going back 
to school. For me this was just a clue that Harry was not a Wizard 
School Drop out, he went back and finished his classes and passed 
his final exams to get his wizarding diploma. It has nothing to do 
with elf rights or lack or rights. It was a statement about 
finishing school. Why else would he sleep there?
