6 sentence Grammar help British speaker or American please help
I have some question regarding each sentence. I would like to better them.
1)
I know, had I come to visit the city in the winter I wouldn't have appreciated it the same way.
----
Should I say during the winter or in the winter? appreciate it the same way or like it the same way. How would you have put it?
2)
I'd rather freeze my face off than freeze my neck off because if I wear my scarf over my face and not my neck, there is a better chance I will get sick.
----
How would you write the sentence if you had to say something like it?
3)
Let's go inside to warm up a bit. I'm feeling cold out in the snow. Fine.
----
Does heat up work better or not?
4)
Would you rather live in a country where you'd be so cold as not to feel your face or in a country where you'd be so hot as not to be able to breathe?
----
If this is clumsy, how would you say it unclumsily?
5)
I pay the monthly salary of one employee with the money from renting a hotel room for one night
----
Is this good English?
6)
The tram in this city doesn't have its own lane. It follows the lane of the cars.
----
I understand it but is it the best choice of words?
Regards and thank you for your time
