I dont think its possible nicely, esp. if you dont know the stations etc. 
Maybe you *could* make it with running from train to subway and train and 
luck or with a taxi, but not really.

Probably nothing, all websites suck and those to buy scheduled services like 
trains or planes suck more. On the renfe website I had the best results with 
searching with the form on the top left on www.renfe.es.

Actually the cheapest is to buy online between 90min and 24h before the 
journay. But thats definitly not the safest.

In any case you will have to print your online ticket. 

If you go to the station and buy it there (up to immediatly until the train 
leaves), the one-way price is 31 EUR.
