I never thought much about it, because for the first 10-15 years I was making my own bed, it was in a corner of the room (and for many years, built in so that I couldn't pull it out). Same for college dorms, officer training, and the bedrooms in the first couple of houses we lived in after marriage.
One solution is to use sleeping bags or sleep sacks, and not worry about trying to make up the bed as if preparing for photo shoot in House Beautiful. Pretend you are camping.
