So if not a two piece pro unit what about air conditioning a single room - a bedroom for instance with a portable?
I've got a 10,000 BTU portable unit in my home office, as it's a small room packed with computers and monitors and is south-facing, so gets a bit warm in summer. It sits by the sash window, with the hose pointing out of it and a DIY blanking plate blocking the rest of the opening which doesn't have the hose sticking out of it.
It works pretty well, but it's bogging noisy. I certainly couldn't sleep in the same room while it's on. It might work if you pre-cool the room with the AC before going to bed, and then turn it off though. TBH I haven't used it for the last few years, as I only use it in extremis, and it hasn't been too stinky hot for the last few years.

Yeah I get ya. It’s gonna be spendy.
Our flat is about 900sq foot. Last summer it was often 29-30 daytime and 26 at night inside so obvs a fan or being naked - although sexy - isn’t going to work.
We have no outdoor space. We have a toddler. It’s gonna suck. It might suck less if we can escape the heat in our place because we won’t be escaping it in an office or cafe.
