I never have.  Of course, most of the roads here are laid out
on a grid, so the road is likely to run either east-west or
north-south.  The directions in which the rooms face can be
derived from that information.

We have the occasional road that follows an old Indian trail,
river, or cowpath.  And modern subdivisions have winding roads
to slow traffic and give the illusion of natural growth.

I've never given it any thought, let alone shown up with a compass.
Funny idea, though. "Look there comes a hobbit with her compass!"
