Check out these units on this page, it may help you decide. If it were me, It would have to be a "Carrier" A/C unit.

I got one of these. I have seen them out there cheaper. When out of season out of trailer. 2 draw backs, takes up floor space and needs a vent to expel hot air. I cut a pc. of Plexiglas glass for vent tube and slide it in a open window.

 Did you drill your floor for a drain hose to empty the pan, or do you empty the drain pan periodocally?

 My inlaws have one of those in the back of their camper, they use it to help out their roof mount unit when the visit Phoenix, Az.

I just empty the pan. Wife said no to hole in floor. Also can move it around without having to worry about drain hose.
