have you got enough room to erect the central dome part? if so then just get that bit up and then put the poles in one bedroom section at a time, or failing that surely you can borrow a friends or relatives garden for a week or so? or do you have a garage where you could put up some washing lines to drape it from

If we ever get another dry day this year, you could take it to the local park and out it up for a couple of hours to dry out.
Or google tent drying services in your area, we have a company near us that offer that service for £20, they even pack it away for you.

I have just enjoyed a couple of days of sharing my small front room with my wet Dutch Pyramid Tent. I put my stepladder inside it to create more height / bigger drying surface : footprint ratio and just keep rearranging the folds until it is dry. Then spread tarps on my v small lawn and I can roll it up from being folded in half.
At least my room smells of tent while this is going on and I can imagine I am still camping.
Even if I was thoroughly fed up after 3 days of rain when the forecast was hot sun.
