But you can make it into a comment to make the functionality clear:
else // (temperature >22)
Also, you might be missing some punctuation in your string "Just right" — It should have a period at the end.

I am not taking this challenge but let think about the logic out of curiosity
the second block is only applicable when temperature == 22. Otherwise, the first block is the first to catch the parameter.
Have you tried == instead of <= and see if you get same error?
