What you fly is much less important than who you fly with. The most important consideration when deciding where to learn to fly is the quality of the instruction. My experience is the per hour cost of the aircraft has the least effect on the total cost of a license.

The quality of the instruction, the extent of ground delays, the distance to the practice area, cost of landing fees, the servicability of the aircraft, the organizational competence of the school and how much work you put in preparing for every flight will determine how much your license costs. Unless the per hour cost is grossly disproportionate the more expensive aircraft will not in itself, have a huge impact on total training costs
