If "your friend" is really worried about messing with windows etc., you can noticeably cool your place with a good DEHUMIDIFIER, closed 'room-darkening' window shades, and decent air circulation (oscillating fans/ceiling fans) ... air does not heat up if it is kept moving. If your dehumidifier is doing it's job, you will have to empty it every 5 hours or so, but that's a small price to pay for being comfortable.

For years that's all I had, and people swore I had AC when they came into my house.

The humidity is what traps the heat and makes it unbearable ... remove the humidity from your room, and keep the sun from coming in the windows, and you will really be surprised how much cooler it is - without AC!
