English is not my first language (assuming hideaway is a place one goes to hide from something). Do you mean that as a good or bad thing?

It is a good thing, the context implies it is a place where he or she has chosen to hide away. The idea of a chosen place to hide is "good" because the choice means that if it we're bad the author would not have chosen it.

Saying "hideaway from the police" would be an example of it being bad, because the police have forced the hiding.

Not the person you asked, but I can assure you, it's a good thing. And I feel the same way.

I mean it as a good thing, and that I think it contributes to my sanity. :)
