Worx Hydroshot
I've tryed this, but I liked the convenience of the integrated tank as it'd save me having to carry 2 separate items up/down the stairs (Hydroshot and bucket).
My cleaning OCD will always impose me to brush off the whole bike anyway, so I am more after something that gets the loose mud off and wets the stuck one, as well as something that quickly and efficiently rinses the bike after I brushed it. Unfortunately it still sounds like a lot of work, but it's the best I can aim to with given my constraints.

Get yourself a 1/2” bolt, drill a 1.5mm hole down the middle, stick it down the end of the hose pipe, a good jubilee to hold it in place and you have an effective jet washer for bikes. Very quick, very cheap, takes up no space and does as good a job as a jet washer. Chucked my jet washer on eBay after doing this.
Personally I really wouldn't bother. They aren't very good and the water pressure is the root cause as it's too low to do anything other than to wash away the loosest of mud. Save up a bit more and get a Worx Hydroshot, it's so much better.
