Location: It is the best homestay in the village, with a great view. It is only two minutes downstairs to the main street, which is very convenient for food and walking.
Facilities: The operation team has considered it very well, including washing machine, refrigerator, double basin in the bathroom, bathtub cover, disposable bath towel, disinfectant wipes, local tea and books. The house is decorated with logs and no paint, which is very healthy and original.
Hygiene: The hygiene is very good. When I checked in, I cleaned and wiped all the countertops again. There was no floating dust. Although the hotel is in the mountains, it is very dry and not humid.
Service: The Biyin team made my three-day and two-night stay in Zhaoxing Dong Village more colorful. At the beginning of the reservation, I was worried that the weather changes would affect the health of the children. I called in advance to ask if I could cancel the trip and check out temporarily if the temperature dropped suddenly. The staff said they could understand (this is much better than another popular homestay that is also ranked high. The cancellation fee within seven days is 30%.)
From the time I arrived at the high-speed rail station with my children, the housekeeper was waiting at the exit hall. I was with my children alone, and they upgraded my room type. After arriving at the hotel, we were served with rich afternoon tea, high-quality welcome fruits and high-quality coffee. Luggage was delivered directly to the room.
Butler Xiaoshi and Butler Xiaoguang introduced us to the situation in the village and gave us some travel recommendations, so that I could have fun without making a strategy.
Because I wanted to bring my children to experience the culture of the Dong ethnic group, the homestay invited a non-legacy inheritance teacher to perform the Dong ethnic group's big song night performance. Butler Xiaoguan is versatile. He played the Dong ethnic group's pipa and sang songs. He introduced us to the history and classification of the Dong ethnic group's big song, laying a general foundation for us. Later, when we participated in the performance in the village, the children were able to quickly recall the knowledge of the Dong ethnic group songs they had heard the night before.
Before coming, I was worried that this homestay was too good-looking and whether it was more suitable for couples and not for parents and children. But the actual team was very attentive and warm in all aspects, helping me take care of the children, and there were more Chinese traditional culture and social science books, which were very suitable for children who can read independently.
I took the book ”Chinese Dong Nationality” recommended by the housekeeper back to the room and read part of it. It is more complete than the museum in the scenic area, which helps tourists understand the history and culture of the Dong nationality. The 6-year-old child also likes ”Chinese Mythology” and has been reading it since returning to the room. The weather was cold, and we sat on the terrace of the room, drinking tea and reading books. Looking up, we could see the whole picture of the Dong village, which was very comfortable.
There are also books on Dong culture in the room, but I haven't had time to read them yet. I will read them when I check in again.
During our stay, we also saw a one- or two-year-old baby staying. It is recommended to buy some picture books suitable for preschool children.
Thanks to Xiaoshi, Xiaolong, Guang, Xiangxiang, Xiaoyu and Han Butler for their meticulous and attentive service during this period, which made us have a perfect journey.
If we have time later, we will come to Zhaoxing Dong Village again and choose Biyin.
