I have 5 slides that open up and create a huge space. That's why I chose my floorplan. Access when closed is a secondary concern.
Our 5er will live in a garage, once I'm done working on it in our heated building at work. The tradeoff for having it protected from the weather, is not being able to open the slide. So access to most of the RV with the slide in, IS a big deal to us.
I'm slowly getting my head wrapped around this whole 5er thing - it's so much more complicated than our slideless Class C....LOL!
I can see the benefits of inside storage and a luxury most RV'ers don't have. Inside storage will enable you to keep your RV in pristine conditions. I can also understand while the acess issue is more important to you than most.
However if you are not able to open your slides at all while in storage accessing the RV for general maintenance and upkeep may eventually get to be be a hassle. Not sure how many slides you have or how often you use your RV, but not being able to open slides at all while in storage would probably be a deal breaker for me.
