I live in Sydney, northern suburbs. I’m trying to find the optimum solution for a bedroom floor to replace the sick carpets with an alternative healthy floor. My ideal is bright sand color flooring. Timber seems not that tough as bamboo, but bamboo products are imported from China and the quality may not be as good. If anyone has a bamboo floor for a few years now, I’d like to hear from you, and if you are happy with the quality, please let me know where to buy it from.

Or do a lot of patrons stay on afterwards and buy normal priced drinks?
Please only answer if you’ve owned or worked at a bar and actually know how it works.
