What it the best offline IPhone city map ap that I can use in Spain? I really want good street detail when I try to find my hotels Yes, I am using my GPS, but when you are navigating thru one way streets in your rental car, it is always good to have a picture to look at. And it gives you some alternatives, just in case "you can't get there from here".

I don't know about Spain-specific apps, but when I need a good map, I simply use the google maps app that comes with the device and then take a "Screen shot" (Home button & power button pushed simultaneously) of the parts of the map that I need, in any level of detail that I want. It gets saved as a photo in your photos app which you can access any time without the need for wifi. You can also do a directions search with your precise end point and it will give you step by step instructions/maps that are very accurate. Take a screen shot of each step and you're good to go without wifi. When that part of the journey is done, just throw away the photos.
