The bunks in both the campers we have had are twin length but not as wide as a normal twin. Maybe you can go on the manufacturer's website- a lot of them have the floor plans on there with measurements.

RV beds are weird sizes - My suggestion would be google the brand and model of your RV and see if you can find a brochure of information on the size. My guess is that a Twin will definitely cover it width wise but it could be longer or shorter.

Other than that - take a deep breath and crawl around in it. :)
