I wouldn't just throw random ideas at it like: add heater, use curtains, buy a rug. Maybe this will work short term, but you need to determine the problem first. Are you losing heat or not supplying enough heat? If losing it, are you losing it through the walls, ceiling, floor, or a combination of each?

How big is the room? Is it drywall or paneling? Just curious because I added some of the rolled insulation in a bathroom that is at the outer wall of our house when I was doing a renovation. Stuff is cheap. Staples into place. If you have paneling it might be fairly easy to pry it loose, staple up some insulation, and hammer it back in place. Drywall would be a bigger job, but for one room it isn't that bad.

It's a rent house. I doubt the OP can or wants to invest much money into this.
