Plus you can't stand in the bedroom unless you are 4' tall. Other than that our floorplan is perfect for us and the trailer works great. My truck is a total gas hog and it doesn't matter pulling a trailer or not; still a gas hog. I bought our trailer due to length; we need to be under 30' due the hook up space on our property. We have a full hook up and no potential for making it longer as the fence on the dog run and power pole limit length.

I did the same thing in our bunkhouse. The lower bed was so big you couldn't walk in the room. I modified the frame and put in a regular size twin mattress. Now you can actually walk in without standing sideways on top of the heater vent.
