Default hibicus question

I have a Hibicus and have kept it outside this summer (I live in zone 7).
This winter I am bringing it inside. What conditions inside do these plants
like? Trying to figure the best place to place it in the house.

It wants fairly warm temps, relatively high humidity, and bright
light. Usually, the latter two are the hardest to provide in an
house. I keep my hibiscus in with the orchids in a room that I
keep deliberately high humidity, that also has grow lights.

Also check it regularly for spider mites. Spray with warm water and a
little dish soap (1/2 teaspoon per quart), or get some lady bugs and turn
them loose in that room.
