Answer 1

Did you use INotifypropertychanged ? you should implement INotifyPropertyChanged and change your child list when parent was changed

Answer 2

I prefer Master Slave/Details way of combo box. U can find Here

But in your Case

The binding for Room ComboBox should be from Code Behind on the basis of selected LocationID.

the below binding

ItemsSource="{Binding Path=DataContext.Rooms..

should be something like this

ItemsSource="{Binding Path=DataContext.RoomsInSelectedLocation

and in ViewModel

IEnumerable<Room> RoomsInSelectedLocation  
{  
     return Rooms.where(r => r.LocationId == SelectedLocationId);  
}

evaluate this every time the Location Combo selected item changes.

Answer 3

Use ObservableCollection<Room> instead of List (this will cause the second combobox to update when the first combo box changes the location which in turn causes the room collection to change.

Use ObservableCollection<Location> also. Your locations might not ever change, but this is simply good MVVM form.
