It's all about air flow.
Each vent in each room should have the same air flow rate.
Check the temperature of the air coming into each room. All should be about the same.
If you have dampers in the attic they may need to be adjusted. If you don't have dampers it may be part of your problem.
Had a similar issue on one side of my house. I wasn't getting the proper air flow. Had A/C technician install some dampers and check the air flow into each room.

Technician told me dampers won’t work for the ductwork because the measurements were off. He suspected they were installed by the homeowner and not a certified specialist. I’m just wondering if a window unit can keep the kitchen area cool enough to allow for my daughter’s room to also stay cooler in the evening.

Does that sound accurate?

I should mention this is a rental and the landlord doesn’t really fix anything unless it’s something his father is willing to work on for him.
