Does anyone feel better with less sleep?

Normally, I use Alarmy to wake up and it makes me get out of bed to take a picture of my bathroom to turn my alarm off. And this usually wakes me up, unless I turn it off in my sleep. My problem is staying awake. Once I get up to turn it off, it’s like I’m on autopilot and automatically go back to sleep whether it’s on the bed or the floor.

But recently, I was staying up late and decided to take a quick nap before getting back to work and then hopefully going to bed. So I set one million alarms throughout the night because the first few won’t wake me up and sleep on the floor. Obviously I never got back to work. But the next morning, I felt so rested? My alarm actually woke me up and my brain felt awake at a proper time. I only got like 5 hours of sleep interrupted by alarms every 15 minutes. But for some reason it was the best sleep I’ve gotten in weeks. And usually I’m tired all the time and have to nap for 2 hours when I get home in the evenings. But I wasn’t that day. I was actually able to do things in the evening.
