Yes. Bluetooth is used to assist in location. Turning off means the location may not be as precise.
Is it better to have Bluetooth power on in order to get iOS works as intended?
Yes. It's recommended to leave Bluetooth on unless you really need to turn it off for some reason.
Does it affect to much battery charge?
No.
Bluetooth uses very little battery power. Almost no power in relation to other phone functions.

No specific document by Apple that has any bluetooth power usage numbers, but different tests by different people around the world mostly agree that normal battery usage by bluetooth when not actively in use is almost negligible. less than 0.4% per hour.
In the grand scheme of things using battery power, Bluetooth contributes almost no drain at all.
Thanks for your answers and explanations.
There is confirm from Apple too?
