Don't expect much from the facilities on the mountain. It might be a converted village manor; there was dust on the stair railings and other surfaces, and long cobwebs were visible in the wardrobe in the room. When I inserted the key card to turn on the power, there was a loud thud, like something heavy had fallen. The bedding was relatively clean, but the breakfast was terrible; I only ate a boiled egg.
On the positive side, the natural scenery and activities at Balagezong far exceeded expectations. The Sky Road 108 was easy to drive, wide, and not dangerous, with beautiful scenery along the way. We experienced the glass skywalk and zipline, both of which we filmed with a drone, making for great memories. Although the canyon rafting was a bit expensive, the scenery along the route was still good, and our child was even happier skipping stones by the river. We went up to the Shambhala Pagoda, which was clear and pure after the rain. The weather was great at night, and we saw a sky full of stars and even captured the Milky Way, though only for about an hour before it was covered by clouds. The sandwiches at a coffee shop in Bala Village were decent; we had them twice.
The staff, especially the younger guys, were very enthusiastic and proactively helped with our luggage. For our two-day, one-night stay with two adults and two children, the complimentary water wasn't enough. We went to the front desk to ask for four bottles but were told we could only have two, and more would require a supervisor's approval. After our firm insistence and the help of the bellboy, we eventually got four bottles of water, but it was a very unpleasant experience.
