The CIA could take notes from the RV industry on withholding information on this one. I have spent many nights researching and with a few exceptions from the private sale sector I have 0 information. Long story short, my wife has off and on digestive issues that necessitate quick stops which not only are inconvenient but sometimes impossible.. Hence our looking for an upgrade to Class C. Currently looking at the Redhawk 27N as it is slideless and always has access to the loo in travel mode.. What other models for the sake of argument also have such an accessible feature?
 
Are you specifically looking for slideless or just one where the bathroom is accessible while traveling? Our 29MV has two slides but they don't affect access to the bathroom.
 
Our 1st Generation Seneca 36MS has two bathrooms and one is easily accessible with the slide in. The 36MS has two slides. Ours is an 08 but in terrific condition. You have to search for the gold but I wouldn't take any other coach for ours.
 
Our 2021 Redhawk 31F has one long slide on the driver's side. Even with it retracted, there's access to the restroom. Access to the rear main bedroom must be through the bathroom if the slide is retracted.
 
I think a lot of the Class Cs have access with the slides in. I think the designers know and strive to make things accessible.

Our 31FK - everything is accessible with the one slide in.

Pull up the Jayco website, look at floorplans and even tho' they're drawn slide outs, I'll bet you can figure out those that will work for you.

Good luck!
 
My 26M is easy to move around in when the slide is in. The only negative is the murphy bed won't open with the slide in.
 
We have a 29MV, and it is completely functional with all slides in. The only issue we have is since we put a thicker mattress and topper on the bed, which is in a slideout, we can't easily open the closet. Total functionality with slides in was one of our "must haves" when we shopped. I found that every Class C I looked at had bathroom access with slides in, which is kind of expected in a motorhome IMO.

Travel trailers and fifth wheels are another story.

One source I relied on a lot was "Josh the RV Nerd". He's put out videos on SEVERAL units, and one of the points he started hitting was what is and is not accessible when slides are in.

I would pick out your top couple floor plans, and go look at them in person, or at a minimum, look on Youtube and see if you can find a walkthrough video, there are TONS out there.
 
My Greyhawk 30Z has full access to everything including the bathroom and bed with slides in. Also has a great floor plan regardless of slides in or out. I use it as an office many days in our driveway and I keep all the slides in.

Also nice that if your wife was in the bathroom, others can still use the sink on the road.
 
I have a 2023 Redhawk 26xd; it has 2 slides, and the bathroom is accessible all times. It's perfect for my wife, who has digestive issues also.
