Black Water Tank location - 2007 Sprinter 250RBS

I have a 2007 Sprinter 250RBS, and want to buy a Black Water Tank Cleaning Wand - but I don't know whether I should buy the flexible wand or the non-flexible wand. It depends on whether the tank is right underneath the toilet or not.
Looking underneath the trailer I cannot tell exactly where the tank is, though I think it is directly under the toilet. Does anyone know for sure where it is located - if it is not directly under the toilet, I would need the flexible wand.

Thanks for your help.

Might be easier to just use a flashlight, hold the flush valve open and look down the toilet.

The 250RBS (I believe) is a travel trailer with a rear bathroom. I've only seen travel trailers with toilets that sit "directly above" the entry hole in the black tank. Only on Fifth Wheels with "elevated bathrooms" is there any "angled entry plumbing" to get waste to the black tank.

I'm confident that your toilet sits directly over the black tank "hole". You can turn off your water pump (city water) and flush the toilet (open the valve) and with a flash light, look directly into the black tank. It sits less than a few inches below the toilet.

X2, But getting the flex type will also allow you to get to the corners of the tank easier.
