When I did a daytrip to Salamanca from Madrid, I stayed over night and came back the next day.

I did not take the train, but the Autores bus which I do recommend. It was extremely comfortable bus ride, so comfortable I feel asleep and the views of the countryside were magnificent.

When I arrived at Autores bus station in Madrid, I used the subway to return to my hostel that was close to Puerta del Sol. It was an easy trip by subway to the Puerta del Sol subway station.

The only difficultly I think he will have is when he arrives at Puerta del Sol, getting his bearings and were to go next.

If he sees a statue of a bear or El Corte Inglés department store, he is on the wrong side of the street and should head in the opposite direction were his hostal is located.
