The SteelAway is exactly as described and more. It feels like a hideaway, a great place to recharge and to work as well, but well placed to explore Ballard, Fremont, and all the neighborhoods in between. During our two-week stay, we became regulars at the Red Arrow (for coffee and delicious breakfast goodies) and hiked the fifteen minutes to Fremont Peak Park to view the sunsets. Allory is a wonderful host, and her guidebook if filled with great suggestions. Alas, we did not want to leave, but hope to be back again some time.
