Deciding between two B&Bs in Dingle

We will be in Dingle for three days in May 2018. Trying to decide between Castlewood House and Dunalavin House. Has anyone stayed at either? If so, what did you think?

We stayed at Castlewood House spring 2017. It was absolutely wonderful. Our room was modern, elegant and spacious. We had a genuine king- sized bed, armoire, vanity table and comfortable upholstered chair. There was a kettle and coffee/ tea making provisions. The bathroom was very large with a separate shower and soaking tub. There was counter space around the perimeter of the bathroom giving you plenty of space for toiletry kits. The breakfast was the best we have had in all of our travels. There is a menu and you order cooked-to-order specialties like eggs Benedict or porridge with an assortment of additions from whiskey to warm cream. There is also a small table with special side dishes like homemade bread pudding and warm poached fruit. The location is wonderful as you are on the " correct " side of the bay for the downtown area. There is a small lounge with comfortable seating and complementary coffee, tea and snacks all day. You will be VERY happy with this choice.

Thank you both for the responses. I think we'll be staying at Castlewood House.
