Is it actually true that the Visigoths were hated by most of the Iberian population, and there were even some local Christians who fought alongside the Muslims against the Visigoths?

No.

In fact the Muslims sacked many cities and villages during the early VIII century because they wanted to restore the Visigothic rule.

The Chronicle of 754 written by the bishop of Cordoba lamented the fall of the kingdom at the hands of jihadist terrorism and the destruction these jihadists caused. Later ratified by the Saracen chroniclers as Allah's reward for waging war on the Spanish.

The jihadist chronicler Ahmad ibn Muhammad al-Razi proudly says in "Report of the kings of Al-Andalus" that during VIII century all the Christian temples of Cordoba, Emerita Augusta, Zaragoza, Italica, Tarraco and Toledo were destroyed or turned into mosques (the mosque of Cordoba was built over a demolished basilica).

The Kingdom of Asturias, started by one of the spatharians of King Rodrigo, ie, Pelayo, became strong because hundreds, and then thousands of Christians fleeing oppression they suffered by Jihadist goverment (executions, mistreatment, decapitations, sack of Churches relics, slaver trade by Jews, etc.), fled to the Asturian domains. They settled in the wastelands along the Duero River. They brought to the Asturians the thought of Saint Isidore, Saint Leandro, Braulius of Zaragoza, etc., the Hispano-Roman artistic and architectural style, painting, and literature.

The Islam arrived with terrorism and war and the Islam fell despite all the efforts by jihadist terrorist regimes in North Africa, by the common cause of Spanish people to expel a terror force out of their lands.

Spanish chroniclers since the very beginning of the terrorist invasion considered the Jihadists a divine punishment due the sins of the kingdom.
