  I can’t remember who suggested it, but I’m considering those emergency warming blanket things since they’re thicker than alfoil and I’m not sure what else to use besides alfoil

  The rental laws also stipulate that you’re allowed to put anything removable on the windows for the purposes of privacy or temperature control. So getting some window tint, or even completely blacking out sun facing windows could also be an option in the long run

    Maybe the sunshades that go in car windscreens?

      That’s a good idea. From what I remember, I think they’re fairly affordable and I’ve seen them in $2 shops a few times

      I might look at some kind of window frost film in any case since the neighbours windows look directly over my fence and into my bedroom window which I’m not huge on.

    I was looking at the window tint a while ago, the sample square I got off eBay wasn’t amazing but Bunnings sells too and it could help.

      It doesn’t seem too expensive. If it could just keep my bedroom a few degrees cooler, that would eliminate the need for the porty and it’d probably pay for itself in time
