I have no personal experience with a Murphy bed, but I talked to a couple who had one. I was told that it can be folded when completely made up, and deploying it and folding it was very easy. They seemed to like it.
I do have some experience with sofas and u shaped dinettes. U dinettes don't comfortably sit as many people as you might think. Two people sitting near a corner will be knocking knees. I suggest you sit all the people who will travel with you at any dinettes you are considering before you commit.
I would give high priority to a sofa. No matter how much time you intend to spend outside, you'll have to deal with an occasional rain day and a comfortable sofa will make a big difference. Dinettes are fine for a meal or playing game, but they're just not comfortable for reading or watching TV.
Do happen to know what camper brand/model they had?
I agree about the u-shaped dinettes. They are much better than standard dinettes, however. My dream is one big couch that has chaise legs coming off the two ends and then a folding table you can move in front of it when you need to eat at it. I have yet to find that setup yet, though!
