From the Back Cover:

budget travel redefined

I put a fresh spin on budget travel, showing you not only how to spend less in Spain, but how to see it in a more authentic way, without sacrificing comfort for savings.

Cozy, restful accommodations: Instead of spending $300 a night for a chain hotel, stay in an authentic Gypsy cave carved into a hillside in Granada for $95 a night (p. 154), or at the Hostal Bianco II in the heart of Madrid for just $46 a night (p. 21).
Food finds: Eat like a local without breaking the bank. I'll show you where to find the most authentic and filling midday men�s del d�a and the best spots for tapas hopping.
Sights and attractions: Get insightful coverage of Spain's historic and cultural sights, renowned art and architecture, beautiful beaches, and the gems most visitors miss.
Insider's Spain: Learn to Flamenco in Andalusia, where the art was born (p. 143); cook up authentic Basque cuisine at an exclusive txokos dinner party (p. 363); or trek Asturia's glacier-carved limestone cliffs (p. 409).
