My bonsai has been losing a lot of his leaves so I’m wondering if I should move him to my bedroom or am I just under watering him? Also my bonsai’s pot doesn’t have any drainage holes so is that also a problem?

    You definitely need to have drainage holes.

    drainage is 100% necessary. the leaves curling tells me underwatering.

    Bonsai trees need wet soil most of the time but not too much water just enough to make the soil damp. And it looks like it gets a good amount of sun which would be why it's drying up and dropping leaves. Just make sure it gets more water and drain holes

    I agree, it's currently underwatered and will definitely need drainage. As it recovers, you can trim away any branches that don't make new leaves; several of them look dead. Also pruning back the longer branches can make it bushier; if you leave it without pruning it will try to become a full sized tree.
