WFH or extra family office? IB SA

tldr: Should I work at an office 20 minutes away or in my bedroom for BB SA and why?My internship will be remote this summer for a BB. I will be living at home where I have my own room and have enough room for a desk. I am also fortunate that my dad's office has an extra room in it that he said I would be welcome to use during the duration of the internship. The office is roughly 15-20 minutes from my house (30 if you catch the train).Would it be smarter to just set my computer up in my bedroom and not worry about the "commute"/have easier access to the full work setup? Or should I have my primary workstation at the office for some sense of normalcy? I would bring my laptop to and from the office. While the office sounds like a great way to get out of my room, is it practical in the WFH environment?I also have thought about buying an extra monitor using my own money and having a setup at the office and my room.
