We had a great stay! Lydia and her family are very welcoming and have great suggestions for local pubs or brunch opportunities.
The location is perfect, because the tube is so nearby and the city center is easy to reach. We were also very happy that we were able to park our car in a safe environment. Brixton is a very nice and cosy neighborhood. It was fun to get to know a different part of London that was less flooded with tourists. However, if you are not accustomed to a big city, it can get a bit noisy outside during the nights, but ear plugs are available (or you can bring your own).
