Americas Best Value Inn and Suites Livingston

This hotel is currently under major renovation.  The first sign of negligent management is that the entrance is almost completely blocked by a disorderly pile of building materials.   One must enter through the back door of the hotel into a wreck of a first floor that was filthy and smelly.    We went up to the third floor room - 320 - which was newly renovated.  Most of the lights had not been plugged in and the shower water leaked.  The room was clean and new.   It just looked like nobody anticipated receiving visitors.    When we got up, there was no breakfast as the lobby was closed.    I know dealing with a renovation will be difficult, but everything about this hotel was shoddy and mismanaged.
