Hideout Hostel was very clean, good location, and offers a continental breakfast with your stay. Also, unlike most hostels, the bed was very comfortable and all rooms have a private bath (quite large in my double room), which are big plusses.
Spartan amenities apart from towels and a hand soap dispenser, so you need to bring your own shampoo, soap, etc.
I overpaid substantially for the room since I booked late but if you can get a good price it's definitely worth a stay and makes a good base to explore Dingle and the peninsula.
Note: be sure to visit Land to Sea restaurant up the street. I ate there both nights in Dingle and had one of the finest meals of my life with the six-course tasting menu. A bargain too at 48€. Thanks again, Brian.
