The Accent and Dialect You'll Hear in Salamanca:
People from Salamanca claim to speak with a classic, faultless accent. This is not true. They, like in Madrid, lisp the 'd' at the ends of words (making Madrid sound like 'Madrith'). Some of them also do something especially odd - lisping a hard c such as in the word 'correcto', pronouncing it as 'correthto'.
However, some odd idiosyncracies aside, listening to people from Salamanca speak is a great way of improving your Spanish.
Lifestyle in Salamanca:
Salamanca has a vibrant nightlife, especially for such a small city, as it has a large student population. Unfortunately, this amounts mainly to cheesy techno music and not what you might associate with 'studenty nightlife'.
Salamanca's academic and linguistic reputation brings a lot of foreign (especially North American) students into town. Hip-hop clubs have sprouted up to cater for them.

Language Schools Where You Can Learn Spanish in Salamanca:
This is a bad thing. Lots of schools means too few students to go round. A Japanese friend of mine learned Spanish in a class that was made of of 50% Asian students and 50% Brazilians. Asians typically learn slower than the average European as their languages are so different from Spanish, whereas Brazilians find switching from Portugese to Spanish especially easy. But there were not enough students in the school to justify splitting the class in two.
