The Baker Deposit and Cancellation Policy
All reservations require a valid credit card to guarantee the dates of the guests stay.
For reservations less than four nights, or whose total amount due is less than $400, The Baker is able to offer a 24 hour cancellation policy. If we are notified of the cancellation at least 24 hours before our standard check-in time, the guest will not be charged anything.
For reservations of longer than three days, or those that have a total amount due of more than $400, The Baker may require a 25%, non-refundable, deposit. The 24 hour reservation policy applies to the remainder of the amount due.
Certain special rates are offered with cancellation, deposit, and refund policies that differ from those mentioned above (for example the 10% off, non-refundable rate).
CHECK IN and CHECK OUT TIME
All guests must be checked out of their rooms by 11:00 am. Rooms will be made available for check-in by 3:00 pm.
RESERVATION AND CANCELLATION POLICY
A valid credit card number is needed to take a reservation. This is to hold and guarantee the room. NO BITCOINS, you hipsters!

DAMAGE TO THE BAKER PROPERTY
Repairs for any damage sustained as a result of any person who is staying at The Baker, or a guest of a person staying at The Baker, or any guest of a person hosting an event at The Baker, will be charged to the credit card held on file for that room or event. Otherwise known as "You break it, you buy it."
NO SMOKING
The Baker is a non-smoking property. This includes no vaping, cigars, or one hitters. Smoking areas are available on the public street just a few steps away. Basically, please keep it away from others who don't smoke. There is a $250 room recovery fee for guests who do not comply with the no-smoking policy, in order to cover the extensive cost of restoring guest rooms to a smoke-free condition. Also, it's worth noting that the house is 125 years old and made of wood - just sayin'.
CHILDREN
We think kids are kind of necessary for the survival of our species. They are welcome at The Baker and we have pack-n-plays, cribs, car seats, and strollers available upon request. We ask that our younger guests be respectful of our older guests ... and vice-versa.
TAXES
We charge all local and state taxes. We like not going to jail, and roads, and police, and firemen, and parks.
LOST KEYS
We don't have keys so if you lose them you have bigger problems.
