My 'C' has a rear bedroom, so I never tried to get into the cab over. But I found a good use for the area. I removed the mattress and put a couple of rolls of the "sticky" stuff down. Then I found 3 plastic containers with lids where I store stuff that I rarely need. If I need anything from up there, I can use the ladder wearing shoes. One box contains an extra slinky. Haven't had to use it yet, but if you're a foot short... The second box contains electrical stuff. A 30A extension cord and 30A/50A dog bone in case the 30A hookup is worn. Used it once. The third box contains an extra white water hose and connector. I've needed that a couple of times. Now I have room in the rear storage area for the huge tool box that once contained full sets of standard and metric tools. But I've removed the metric tools (nothing metric on my rig) and anything that I don't know how to use. Which leaves me with a couple of hammers (easement tools), Phillips and flat head screwdrivers and a Good Sam Emergency Road Service card. It all fits in a small tackle box now.
And I have a 17ft folding kayak in mine ,too.
But, I bet that theirs has a galley in back, so no opportunity for a bed. If they have a gaucho, then they could rip that out and have a bed made in that rear corner.
