Get a good dehumidifier with a drain hose option so that you don’t have to keep emptying the tank. It will produce some heat, so placement is important, but it will pull moisture from the air more efficiently than the AC and that will improve the cooling.
We have a pretty decent one located in Mt wife's room which is basically sealed off from the rest of the house. It runs into the shower. But despite its size it is inadequate for the whole house. I don't have the money to buy a dedicated one for the whole house.
But this little window AC is doing a really excellent job. Set it to 80 and it keeps going and drying the air.
