I can see you used sketchup. So all the white walls (for example most surfaces in the bottom picture) are good. All the gray walls are bad. Right click on all of those and choose "reverse faces".
This color (white versus gray) tells the STL file which part of the model is *inside* (solid) and which is outside (air).
Note that most of the surfaces in the upper sketchup picture need reversing.
Often getting started is the most difficult part of any process. A good start sets you up for success and saves you time and energy that could be spent elsewhere. That is why we have a onboarding course ready for
Ultimaker S5 Pro Bundle, Ultimaker S5, Ultimaker S3 Ultimaker 2+ Connect.
