While we’re all excited about the impending Rio Olympics, the athletes are having quite a displeasing experience over there. A few Australian, Chinese, and Greek athletes have complained about the living conditions in Rio’s Olympic Village.

All the pictures and tweets tell us that the beds are too small, and there are big problems with gas, electricity, and plumbing. All you have to do is go to Twitter and type #RioProblems, and you’ll see for yourself!

The Chinese team responding with sarcasm:

And people are generally outraged…

Feeling a little deja vu? That’s because the same thing happened at the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi.

Olympic officials have that said they expect the issues to be resolved within a few days. Come on guys, the athletes need all the rest they can get, especially since the opening ceremony for the Rio Games is scheduled for August 5.
