Nice city, usually good weather. Well-working public transportation - metro, buses. Plenty of places to eat, prices more-or-less reasonable. Very poor food selection if you’re a vegetarian, plenty to choose from otherwise.
Museo del Prado is free starting 2 hours before closing - a-miso to visit, regardless of everything else.
Google Maps in general is fine - but instead of getting me to Casa Museo del Lope de Vegas, it sent me in a completely opposite direction. I’ve reported the problem.
Hotels aren’t cheap, but comfortable enough.
If you happen to be 65+ years old or a teenager - there are some discounts, otherwise you pay the full price.
