I found Dave, Penny, and Keith to be quite unhelpful. Additionally, I have negative memories of George Banta Sr. making inappropriate comments to a black supervisor at the Buffalo Wild Wings location in Kingston, NY. There's also outstanding payment of thousands of dollars related to that job. It's reassuring to see that I'm not alone in my concerns and that others share similar sentiments.

I have yet to see a genuinely positive review about the facility where I worked that didn't include a list of complaints. Notably, some rooms still have 20-year-old mattresses, and nothing has been updated in the over 20 years the facility has been in operation. With over 10 years in hospitality, I can confidently say I've never encountered a place that shows less care for its property or the feedback from paying guests. Additionally, the property will be in violation of New York State law by next year if an elevator is not installed, which seems highly unlikely to occur. Overall, it's a very disorganized and disappointing place to work, as well as a management company to be associated with. I would strongly advise against staying at any hotels or motels operated under the Banta management name.

The company fails to pay its vendors, leading to service interruptions due to non-payment. I worked at SureStay in Highland, New York, for less than five months, and I was astonished by the poor management. I strongly advise against staying at this hotel; you will regret your decision. Banta Hotels is so poorly run that it’s hard to believe they are still in business, given their incompetence and unprofessional behavior.
