If may be wise to check the food hoard. As the house has a bottom just in case she has peed inside the house. You could wait until she is out running on her wheel or playing etc and remove it to check.

Syrians often choose a corner to pee in. Once a corner is chosen. A litter tray put in that corner and some substrate with pee on put in the tray. The smell attracts the hamster to continue using the tray/pee corner.
Thanks for your reply. The house is quite large with a door and window. The bottom is solid, but also the roof doesn't come off either so would probably have to shake it a little to get anything out.
I think I have found the corner she pees in and will think about potty training, but didn't want to try too many things at once and bombard her.
