Cristina's place is quite something. Both her description and the pictures shown match the real place. It has an air of grandeur and one thinks about the well-to-do people that used to inhabit it and the lives they must have led.
It is easy to find good restaurants around and fresh and tasty fruit and vegetables to eat "at home". On a cloudless day, entering the town just a bit before sunset is a fascinating experience. Yet, be prepared to fight your way amongst hundreds of tourists like you and me wanting to take pictures of the glorious sunset.
My best advice would be to try and enjoy the city in low season.
