This one makes sense in the following ways:

My sister wears clogs when she goes to the bathroom.

She wears clogs when she is in the bathroom.

My sister wears clogs when she is in the bathroom.

My sister wears clogs in the bathroom.

The statements that incorporate "in, into," could only work if a reason, explanation, or clarification is present.
