It will be a grow tent inside a room. I can't make any holes to that room. I mean the hot air from the lamps will need to be expelled out of the tent into the room. That's the only option I will have because all the walls of that room collide with neighbors walls.
Running the exhaust into the same room is only going to make it that much hotter and it's gunna reeeek. Exhausted air is used/spent/humid air and pulling that back through your tent as fresh air isn't ideal at all.
Don't worry so much about the light and worry more about ventilation because it sounds like that is going to be your biggest hurdle. Plus this is what will get you busted.

At my first apartment building the attic was accessible from any apartment through a hole in the closet. Honestly, if I lived a wall away from people, there is no way I would grow weed it stinks more than you think and it just takes 1 person to fuck you.
I think it would be ok running the AC exhaust somewhere because that has an explanation. When I wasn't running my central air and growing my house would smell so delicious lol circulation is absolute KEY. Since you don't have many options though def. go with LED and a NICE carbon filter. There are cheap ones on ebay and shit but they fucking suck and a good carbon filter is arguably one of the most important things when growing indoors IMO. I got a $50 ebay one which barely did anything then a $120 one from the hydro shop and I can't smell a damn thing.

You still have to exhaust portable air conditioners.

That's why I was saying to use a PORTABLE air conditioner instead of a wall air conditioner.
I thought he was asking how to cut a hole in the wall for an air conditioner, didn't realize he was talking about where to stick the exhaust hose.
Yeah man he can't even cut a hole for a hose.

I'm confused. Why i need ventilation outside the tent.
I mean why I need ventilation if inside the room i will have AC unit and dehumidifier. Co2 Is better to keep it in a sealed room, so why i need ventilation outside the tent?
If you don't vent/cycle whatever the air it becomes stagnant and bleh. Sure you vent out but you also need air coming in. Your AC is just cooling air already in the room, no? I'm not sure how those AC's work I guess. Either way an AC isn't going to "refreshen" the air for your plants it's just going to make it colder.

 That's why you're supposed to expel the air OUT of the room in the first place. You don't need an exhaust in the room your tent is in normally because it exhausts through your tent. You just need a source of fresh air coming into that room.

Isn't some A/C's have like double hose? 1 for injecting fresh air and another one to exhaust hot stale air out? That would be like better than using a air conditioner than only cool the air inside without air exchanging any air at all.
I have no idea. If they do that would be a good option but you might have to make 2 holes in the wall then

That might solve your temperature and air ventilation problem at the same time I think. Is it a AC/Dehumidifier? I'm still a noob so I'm not sure if that would be enough, but it's better than nothing!

I would definitely wait to buy something like that though until someone more knowledgeable chimes in.

Dude the plugs come out of the arm holes
Damn that room is smaller than some tents lol! I would just turn one of those rooms into a grow room and ditch the tent. You are
going to have to find a way to exhaust out of there though definitely.

Not much difference between that and a fruiting chamber.
Thanks for your infinite use of knowledge
It is a fruiting chamber

I have mine exhausting into the back part of my basement through the ceiling, which is the only part connected to the other side. Can't smell anything.

WOAH WOAH WOAH... BULLSHIT!!!!!!
Air circulation around the plants is critical.
The plants suck up all the available CO2 within a few seconds, if you don't keep the air moving around the leaf zone they sit in stale air and stop growing within 30 seconds or so.
You create a "No Fly Zone" that makes it hard for small insects to fly through, which cuts feeding and breeding cycles.
You reduce the amount of powder mildew by keeping the air in the damp corners of the plant ventilated and exchanged.
Air circulation is key to plant happiness. Keep fans under the plants so that there is airflow under the canopy as well, not just on the tops.
Ventilation is circulation imo
But thanks for clarifying all of that even tho I already said I really had no experience, just bouncing ideas off.....even tho I didn't read half of what you typed 
Maybe you should read what he typed since you yourself said you have no experience.
