well number one... don't use real hardwood floor... to much exposure to water/abrasives. and real hardwood is like 3/4 of an inch thick. if anyhting, use laminate, but then again, you'd have to epoxy it all and seal it to eliminate the water issue.
hardwood floor even where it is supposed to be is very labor intensive to keep looking good, you have to seal it and refinish it on a fairly regular basis. and that's with normal wear and tear.
