Take a cooking class. Do a bike tour of the city. Eat in long established places like Los Caracoles but new, interesting places like Tickets.

I second the cooking class. It was my favorite thing we did on our Spain trip!

Stay at the W!

Save your hotel points. Stay in a hostel (I recommend the Generator hostel) and plan for at least 3-5 days to do it all and keep it real

Thanks all!

What dates and a/s/l? Im going solo also

Most likely mid-August
