Sumisid Lodge

The staff here is nice, and location is in front of public beach. However, I didn't have a great experience with the owner, Egbert Jan Schaap. I asked if I could pay with my credit card but was told to do a BPI account payment instead. I had coordinated this payment with my family member in Manila. The staff had also confirmed my payment was received into the account# they provided. However, the owner still wanted me to show an actual screenshot of the BPI receipt on my final night. The result was three separate verbal confirmations of my BPI payment by his front desk staff yet I myself was never given an actual receipt from Sumisid Lodge. I suspect the owner was hoping I didn't have a screenshot of the BPI bank receipt so he could try and double charge me. Overall, this just left a negative impression on me. The fact that BPI payments are instantly sent into another account, and also he himself could verify exact payment amount received and time of deposit himself - and even his staff had confirmed this three times to me. And I was not even given an official receipt from Sumisid Lodge before leaving. Just something to be aware off...
