Lovely, quaint heritage hotel.
Pros:

We didn't have a breakfast there. I seem to remember a roll and coffee? We absolutely loved the room, it was decorated nicely. The bed was super comfortable, and had a unique bed frame. The bathroom had one of those nice rain showers - it was so soothing.

Cons:

We were tired and climbing steep stairs to the 3rd floor was a bit much for us...as we are senior citizens.. We would probably stay again as long as we can stay on the 2nd floor. Also the parking lot was full and we had a big load of stuff in our vehicle and it didn't feel very safe to park on the street, but to our pleasant surprise everything was fine.

The staff was very nice and helpful, but I wouldn’t choose to stay there again
Pros:

Great location.

Cons:

Desperately needs an elevator. The set up in the bathroom was terrible. The top was so high. It was so hard to get in and out of. And the shower pressure was horrible.

Clean, great location, be prepared to walk up stairs.
Pros:

It is a historic hotel. Over 100 years in business. That is pretty cool. Location is wonderful.

Cons:

Would have liked a bit of history about the Baker Hotel. Maybe some fun facts … it must have some interesting history.

Pros:

The convenience of the lounge and eatery, free pool
On top notch tables

Cons:

My room was on the third floor of a walk up, so if you’re old like me (74) wasn’t the most convenient. The shower water was absolutely scalding and even when cold was turned on it didn’t cool it down! If those 2 issues were fixed I would definitely book there again

The hotel could be a grand old place but the attention to detail is lacking.
Pros:

The location but that’s about it.

Cons:

2 flights of stairs to lug luggage up with no offer of help. No attention to detail. Just ok , pillows bad , bed comfortable.

Also see above
Pros:

There was no breakfast.
Front counter and cleaning staff, a 10
I would have rated everything a 10, but when I called there I asked for a view so I could get an early morning pic of the mountains. The person I spoke to said should be no problem. The room I got was next to a dirty building. No view what so ever. I arrived a bit early and thought for sure I’d get my request, he said no they are all taken. When I get a decent pic I take it home and paint it, as a memory of the trip. I love painting.

Cons:

See above

Perfect location for a quick stopover.
Pros:

Central.

Cons:

A bit quirky. But nothing really wrong with it. Maybe just slightly overpriced for what it was. But really no complaints.
