You absolutely have to read and understand your state's LL/T law! Why are you renting out property without knowing the laws under which you must operate? Which of the alternate solutions are available in your state is described in your state's LL/T.

It is unlikely that you have to pay for his alternate accommodations. More likely, if and only if your state considers AC to be a habitability issue, you may have to abate the rent for the days at issue.

I'm unclear what you mean when you said the AC isn't cold on Friday and it happened sometime after he came home on Wednesday. You might want to explain what you mean better. If the AC stopped working on Wednesday and he only reported it on Friday, I wouldn't abate rent or compensate him in any way -- if it was okay to live with for 2 days, he could have managed the weekend just fine until you could get a workman out on Monday.
