Just to try and help anyone else that comes here....
The flight school have appartments, and if they are full the recommend local hotels. I did a google search and found somewhere for 22 Euros a night. Its a shared house with kitchen, shared bathroom. Very homely and in the old town of Malaga. compared to 35-40 euros at the hotels, if you have to stay longer than expected its not as much of a hassle.
Its situated in the old town of malaga, Number 1 bus (1 euro each way) takes you to the flight school offices (where the sim is). The same bus passes the train station from where you can get a train to the airport (1.70 euro return) when you are on the aircraft.
Saved me 500-600 euros compared to the hotel I planned to stay in in the first 4 weeks.
