    • Cancellations:
      Des Affiches must adhere to a stricter cancellation policy than you would find at a larger hotel. We have just one room, which means a last minute cancellation has a much larger impact on our ability to re-sell a guest room. We understand our cancellation policy may not fit your needs, and may therefore prevent you from using our accommodations, however we have developed it as a best balance of guest and innkeeper needs. In order to allow us a reasonable amount of time to resell a reserved room, any cancellations must be received by the balance due date (2 weeks prior to arrival) to guarantee that no additional charges to your credit card are applied. Any cancellation made after the balance due date, will result in a refund only for any days we are able to resell. This refund would not include the deposit amount. Any reservation made less than 2 weeks prior to arrival is considered non-refundable/non-cancelable and would result in a refund only for any days we are able to resell. Any refund of nights resold is issued automatically, minus the original deposit.
