Cristina's place is a little and tidy appartment located not far from the city's main sightseeings (20 mins walk to the Cathedral, 10 mins walk to the airport bus stop). The place is cosy and comfortable with all facilities in a perfect condition. Although we were a bit concerned about staying in Macarena as opposed to Santa Cruz, in the end we liked the feel of local authencity the district offered: we went to local Flamenco school to learn a bit of dance and visited Pena community center to enjoy a performance night with locals. There are not too many shops and tapas bars in the neighboring streets, probably something to take into account - place is quite in the night (that's pro), but you'll have to walk a bit to get some food(not always a pro). I'd recommend Cristina's place to travellers looking for a local experience in Seville.
