Personal comments
In murcia, it's cheap to get a flat. DON'T rent a room at the "Espinardo" campus outside town! they are more expensive, ugly and far away from the center of murcia.

Personal recommendation
Do travel around. Don't stay at murcia for more than 6 months. it is a small town and it gets boring after some time. AND: go there during spring / summer because the beach is only 25 minutes away (by car) and the beach is fantastic.
