FWIW, we love the corner bed in the back. We don't "make it up", per se. We put a foam topper on it and that's what we make up - which is really nothing.
The DW has a bad back, so she has the corner bed all to herself so she can spread out on it.
I (6'2" tall & 75 YO) use the queen size cabover bed just fine. HOWEVER ... a point not discussed much in these forums: Our 24 foot Class C has a coach floor raised about 4-5 inches higher than the cab floor. One of the advantages if this is - it's less distance between the coach floor and the cabover bed to climb up into. Even given that, I can almost sit upright on the edge of the the cabover bed.
So the bottom line is that the DW and myself both have a queen size bed to sleep in ... her in a permanent one and myself in one I have to only pull out one-half of, once, whenever we first make camp.
Along with the two queens we have a full size dinette and a swiveling/sliding lounge chair ... but it takes a 24 footer to get this.

I found out that when you are looking at 24 ft size and under MH's. You will either only have the pull out couch as a bed or even worse the dreaded corner bed in the back!

The couch is really not comfortable for two.
The corner bed is even worse. If one person on the far side wants to get out of the bed they have to 'crawl' over the other person. Making a corner bed just sucks.
AND the corner bed floor plan eats into the bathroom leaving you with a bathroom that if you are over 5 ft un'do'able. I highly recommend you sit on the toilet of any RV you buy to see if you fit and/or even can close the door. Been there done that on my first RV AFTER I bought it.:B
I searched and searched for my first used MH, because I wanted to stay under 24 ft but to no avail for a floor plan that gave me a decent place to sleep and go to the bathroom easily. They just don't exist.
I ended up with a 31 ft with a queen walk around bed, a split bathroom that gives you tons of room to move around and sit and a great big glass surround shower with a skylight. Which gives you light and extra room if you are tall.
I've never regretted going up to the 31 foot for the bed and bathroom. :C

We must be willing to get rid of the life we've planned,
so as to have the life that is waiting for us.

My wife and I are looking to buy a small (21ftish) used class C motorhome. Our plan is to tow our motorcycle in a small enclosed trailer and then live in the camper for a 1-3 weeks at a time while we ride, and explore the local roads. ...
...Wondering if that's a perfectly legitimate place for 2 adults to sleep. ...
...if pulling a small trailer will we need a dually?

Get a rv with a bed, if not you will be trying to sell the 21' unit and buying a bigger one. Go with one with at least a corner queen bed. Dick
