Personal comments
To learn or improve your spanish the best thing would be meet a lot of spanish people,they're really nice and friendly people and you can learn thing that teachers don't teach at class ;).
Meet other students from other country is also really important.
Speak spanish as much as possible.

Personal comments
For me the best cafe is ART 13,close to the campus of humanities,music is good and if you go there you have to try THE AMERICANO.
During the night CALLE MON is the place to go,there a lot of bar and a lot of people,you have to try the TORRE at PARACALO's bar,it's the best thing I've ever drunk.
And of course you can't miss CALLE GASCONA with its sidrerias (sidra is a tipical drink in Oviedo).
EL CLANDESTINO is a really nice disco-bar and music is really good!!!
Have fun!!!
