The apartment is in the middle-eastern area. The area looks quite safe. You can have all the middle-eastern food store and restaurant around the apartment that opens till late or 24 hrs.
The place is in the walking distance from many train and tube station but if you have big luggage, it’s a bit far. There is a bus stop right in front though. If you are taking busses, just drop off at Burwood place.
Tim is great on commutation. All information on checking-in are very clear. Over I love it.
