Climate-wise, this applies to hot places as well. I spent a few years in upcountry subsaharan Africa. Sleeping indoors was suggested and encouraged because it made it easier to set up anti-mosquito bed nets, but actually doing so was a challenge, and virtually impossible when it was humid. Much more comfortable to lay out on a bamboo frame with a sheet and hope not to get malaria that night.
