In two rooms, I’ll have to put the indoor unit on an interior wall, then run the lines through the closet to reach the exterior wall. Example here is the master bedroom. The indoor unit will go over that armoire thingy, the lines will go into closet then turn and run to the exterior.

This is exactly what I did - ran pipes and wiring through interior wall, through a walk-in closet (secured to underside of a high shelf that runs the length of the closet) and then through exterior wall. That complicates things, and adds to the work needed, but with planning and patience works out very well with minimal ugliness and obstruction in the closet.
