I had a caravan which used the table as part of the bed base.  It was not ideal. My solution was to use the slats from a defunct single bed.  They were made from slightly curved plywood, which are strong and with a bit of spring.  These can be cut to length with hacksaw and any roughness removed with a file.  When making up the bed put them in place with a 2" (50 mm) gap.  Then cover with cushions as normal.
 
A refinement, which I never got round to making, would be to staple a length of tape/string/webbing at each side to save the effort of spacing the slats each evening.
 
Hope this helps
