Here's a little photoshop editing I like to do when folks ask about a specific camper. When selecting a new camper, I found it was just as important that the camper is 100% usable with the slides retracted as well as extended.
With slides "in", can you access everything you need, in the event you are in a position where you cannot extend the slides? Parking Lot, beside your house, in a storage facility, or just stopped along the side of the road, maybe? It does happen. What if something happens and your batteries discharge and you don't have shore power? There are a lot of reasons why you may not want, or be able, to extend the slides, and here you are, 1000 miles from home? Can you function inside with slides in?
So, a quick visual is worth a million words. Other than your pantry and refrigerator, it looks like yours might be OK, but still, before purchasing, have the dealer pull the slides "in" and then see if you can fix a meal? And the dinette table may have to be lowered to pass to get to the kitchen area. (something to think about)....
