Wood Flooring for Hallway

Hi

I am looking to put some wood flooring down in the hallway and have seen this:

Is this ok for the hallway? Also it says its not waterproof - does that mean I cannot mop it?

It does say not washable on the info ,ive got bamboo flooring and it can be mopped/steamed .

Yes, you can wash it - with a mop that is not dripping with water. We had engineered oak flooring in our previous house and I used to mop it - no damage. How do you think all those years that people had floorboads and no hoovers went by?

As long as you mop/cloth is not dripping with water, it will be ok, I would say. It is like cleaning your wooden table with a damp cloth, isn't it?
