The heat and UV from the sun will cause mini-blinds to sag and become brittle. They also collect dirt and dust easily. Day/night shades are attractive, but can block air flow. Curtains, especially weighted ones, will sway with the movement of the camper. I much prefer using the spring loaded rollers and attaching my own fabric based shades to them.
They make the blinds in plastic or metal. We use metal blinds. Just a few bucks more and and no sag and not brittle. Most because we can get some light but not the sun. We live in an area where we have clear sunny days most of the summer. Home Depot will cut them to fit and no extra charge.
We too have used the roll up shades and made them of material as you can get light blocking ect.
