So keeping that in perspective I'd say the best rule is your student loans shouldn't exceed 60% of your career's 25% percentile wage.

If you invest "fresh" funds, you will not receive any benefit. 

Think about it from a Balance Sheet perspective - you're converting cash to a note receivable.

Consumables such as toilet paper, paper towels etc will also have to be estimates until you know what your consumption is broken down on a per night perspective (the best way to average it over the year assuming you won't ever achieve 100% occupancy).
