Since basement units are the coldest, it won't be as needed. If it gets too cold, heaters are much easier to operate

Depends on where you live and how the basement is built. "Sweating" concrete in winter can be a huge problem, and air quality is worse in basements.

You don't have to go to the basement as long as you're not the top floor I found heat to be endurable with just airing the flat out during the night and morning.

Dark curtains to keep the sun out work really well during the day.
