I tried a couple of things. Gave complete permissions to user at /var/lib/tor/hidden_services/hostname recursively AND
set-up a directory in user's Documents folder. In both instances Tor would not make a connection. Had to revert all settings back to only allowing files to be placed with root restrictions in /var/lib/tor/ (torrc was correctly set to best of knowledge in both instances). I'm using Debian, Tor was installed from apt repositories using instructions from torproject.org, with adding line to sources.list and keyring, etc. Need user to have access to hostname file. Did read something about differences in privileges depending if using apt or downloading tarball?
