110 volt electrical outlet in bedroom

Realized this past campout, there are NO 110 volt electrical outlets in the bedroom on my 1996 U295. Am I blind?
It ran absolutely wonderful and is such a nice coach. I added Opti fuel cetane booster and it made a difference on the passes and long haul hills. I highly recommend it.

Check on the bed platform.
I have two there.

 What is this booster you speak of?

Check down by the drawers on each side of the bed. One on each side.

We've got one on the port side and a phone jack on the starboard.  Thinking of switching out the phone for a 110 / usb / usbc though.  Should be easy enough since power is right there.
 And 110 at the port side vanity.  I did switch that for a 110 / usb plug.

I have an outlet on the starboard side wall of the bed. It is located at the top of the wall in the back, easy to miss.

Recently purchased 1987 Gran Villa 36 Ft. long,460 Ford engine with 40,000 miles on it, new tranny has 3000 miles on it, coach has 75000 miles on it, new 5000 watt genny new fridge, new tires. Am both excited and scared out of my wits at the size of this beast. Love it but need time to become accustomed to it's size.  I'm sure it will take time to experience all the secrets this RV has to offer. Any and all advice gratefully accepted.

Like you I have no receptacles for 110 v on the bed pedestal or adjacent to my bedside cabinets. Last trip to the Mother Ship had one for each side installed on the back wall adjacent to each bedside cabinet. Great for small fans and CPAP's!

Okay. Looked again and sure enough, one on each side of the bed pedestal up high and towards the foot. Strange place. I finally found an error of FT although minor.
Thanks for the help

Opti fuel is a fuel additive,some of us also use Diesel klean,don,t get the error part,that is where
They put the outlets,not an error.

Do those fuel additives really do ANYTHING?

Think on the older engines they make a bigger difference,the fuel we get now is not the exact
Same as in the 90,s.

The outlets would of been much handier in the night stands next to the bed is what I mean about an error by FT. Where they are, you must use an extension cord.
