I would recommend this accommodation to a family with kids. The flat is located away from streets, in the middle of a block, in a neighbourhood that probably was originally developed as a low rise housing project. There are childrens playgrounds on both sides of the flat, outside the terrace and right outside the door. Streets are 100m+ away, so its safe. And there was plenty of local kids to play with. There is a number of interesting pubs and restaurants in the area, mainly to the north; I would recommend "Mussels".
