let me clarify: penthouses and top floor rooms are the best rooms now because they can be kept cool, and have views.
in the past the top floor rooms were the worst rooms because couldnt be kept cool, while also having views.
in older estates, its interesting to see that the lowest ranked personnel were living in areas that are now coveted for the highest ranked personnel. due to their current ability to be kept cool.
Even among recently constructed large houses, some of them have in-law or staff units at the top. Due to the huge size of the roof system, they can be awkward places where the ceiling gets low near the outside, few windows and poor natural light, etc.
