Hi, we've had two adults in the berth, 5'10 and 6'2.. it was a tad tight but not horrible.
The boat itself is big enough that couples do live aboard, we had a couple on our last dock living aboard. As a new sailer, learning on a 30-2, I'd say it's good to learn on, we had no issues going from our training boat to our 30-2. There is enough space to enjoy and the walk through transom is one of the features we wanted on the boat. After 1.5 seasons of learning I am happy with the boat. It's easy for 2 people to handle or 1 with autopilot.
