As people have said most regions are better the further away from the centres you go, the main problem is going to be parking since most flats are either council or seem to have limited parking and a lot of the council garages you could rent are either trapped behind long waiting lists or been torn down
It also depends upon your price range since strangely enough the nicer the area the more expensive the rent normally. However saying that a lot of places are having to cut prices just to get tenants due to the economic situation.

In my experience avoid any flat in church hill, woodrow and most of Winyates though to br fair id imagine most of them are council anyway. Ill ask around and see if anyone can recommend some where for you.
