My solution after many try's ( i will link below to my playlist on run ideas on YouTube)was a big plastic storage box on wheels, so it can be easily moved around and it lives at the end of my bed. This is also where i can put Luna and her house when I am cleaning her cage out, and she can just go back to sleep. She doesn't wake up till late so I can't be cleaning her out late at night.

You could also section off an area with some cardboard or something else, that you can just slide away. I can do this in my bedroom, but she eventually chews the cardboard and I have to replace it.

It's basically just an area that you can set up a few different toys etc and let your hamster run around in a safe and secure place - especially if you can't make your whole room safe and secure.
I’m loving the idea of using a plastic container on wheels...that might work. I would check space. How big is the container? Thanks for the link..will watch them for ideas.

Like Serendipity said..it’s not a must but nice to have...will see if I can make it work.
