“This meticulously restored guesthouse, formerly a jail, resides in the vibrant Treme neighborhood, steps away from the pulse of New Orleans. The owners' dedication to preserving the building's past shines through, creating a unique ambiance of vintage luxury. I think the rooftop deck is a gem, shaded by a century-old oak, the perfect spot to soak in the city's atmosphere.”
