The perfect New Orleans-style getaway
Liked: I normally do not rate places 10 - but this one has earned it. It is so beautiful, there is so much love and effort put to detail.. We really enjoyed being there one rainy afternoon. it feels like home away from home so quickly. The whole family is so committed to do the maximum for their guests, and the breakfast is outstanding in quality. We can and will recommend Kate's place to everyone planning to go to New Orleans.
Disliked: Bring your earplugs, the old building has very thin walls and you can follow a conversation from your neighbor. Our fellow guests were respectful and tried to be quiet in the evenings and early mornings - but I think this is not always the case.

Exceptional
Liked: This is a really lovely bed and breakfast, with really nice amenities, including an in-ground pool and patio area. And I should point out that there is a daily breakfast included that goes beyond just cereal and pastries, there were egg dishes served while we were there. We got the Palmetto room which includes a private bathroom -- not sure if all rooms include that so make sure to check. The bathroom has a completely restored claw foot tub and old time shower attachment making it quite elegant. We were there over Halloween and the place remained quiet during sleeping hours despite being booked. You are ten minutes walk from the Frenchman neighborhood and there is a coffee house right around the corner as well. One of our favorite brunch spots, Horn's, is a walk away as well. The host is very responsive and quickly communicated by text when we had questions, including suggestions for places to drink and eat.
Disliked: While the tub is beautiful, it is a little slippery so be careful getting in and out. The shower water wavered from heavy to light flow, but was adequate for taking a shower, just a little slower

Great!!
Liked: We had wonderful days in the Auld Sweet Olive. It is the perfect starting point to discover New Orleans. Quiet, relaxed and family-run. Every morning there was a different delicious breakfast and the pool was refreshing on hot days. Everyone was very friendly and I would come back to the B&B anytime if I were back in New Orleans.
Disliked: Nothing!
