> esp. at nights (when body slows down even more), so I need a warmer environment (~20 degrees C) to live comfortably at nights.

Adult sleep quality benefits quite a bit from even cooler temperatures at night, ~18.5 degrees C. Use a heavier blanket.

As I said elsewhere, problem is not about sleeping. It's the time period after dinner and bedtime. My body loves to sleep at colder temperatures.

Being tired, not being able to warm oneself after dinner at home because of a slowed down metabolism at 18 degrees C is not comfortable for me (yes, even with warmer clothes, socks, etc. Hot drinks helps, but temporarily).
