Where to locate the shower niche

We’ve installed a shower inside a corner with two exterior walls. Not exactly ideal for the shower niche. Only one spot remains and that is below the shower mixing valves. I think this will turn out ok once we get the tile selected and the shower walls prepped.

The niche will be installed below the shower controls. Better here than inside the insulation of an exterior wall.
