Garage
We have a natural gas water heater and furnace. When it was time to replace our water heater put in by the builder, I looked into tankless. At the time the "good" tankless units were all Japanese, and expensive as heck. And they would require a bigger natural gas supply line to be run from the meter. That was going to cost a lot. We do have a bathtub with the water jets and it is bit enough to sit way down into it. I have never used it, but my wife has. Our water heater will fill it with no problem.

In the end, we have never once run out of hot water, and there was just reason for us to go tankless. I have taken some long showers after a day of working in the garage, and getting dirty, and sore.

And that plumbing job looks like it was done by a first time plumber assistant.
