The fine print
We are in a natural paradise in the heart of the Sierra Nevada, so our electricity service is suspended for maintenance in some moments, or the light is low in others.
We have a power plant for this type of case, and it would provide us with energy in the morning for 2 hours and in the afternoon for 2 hours, given the case that the electricity company shuts off the light for maintenance.
When there is a power outage, the air conditioning in the view room is completely turned off to avoid damaging the air, but all rooms have fans and are very cool.
This property does not accommodate bachelor(ette) or similar parties.
Quiet hours are between 21:00:00 and 07:00:00.
