An Olympic Village is an accommodation center built for the Olympic Games, usually within an Olympic Park or elsewhere in a host city. Olympic Villages are built to house all participating athletes, as well as officials and athletic trainers. After the Munich Massacre at the 1972 Olympics, the Villages have been made extremely secure. Only athletes, trainers and officials are allowed to room at the Village, though family members and former Olympic athletes are allowed inside with proper checks. Press and media are also barred.
The idea of the Olympic Village comes from Pierre de Coubertin. Up until the 1924 Summer Olympic Games, National Olympic Committees rented locations around the host city to house participants, which was expensive. For the 1924 Summer Olympics, the organizers built cabins near the Stade Olympique de Colombes to allow the athletes to easily access the Games' venues. The Olympic Village of the 1932 Summer Olympics served as the model of today's Olympic Villages; it consisted of a group of buildings with rooms to lodge athletes, and buildings with other accommodations.

As Olympians arrive in Rio ahead of the opening ceremonies, many are finding that living conditions in the Olympic village are dramatically subpar. Athletes and journalists are finding problems with broken sinks, clogged toilets, exposed wires, holes in the ceilings and water coming through the walls of showers. Australian basketball star Andrew Bogut tweeted a photo assembling a shower curtain. Bogut also tweeted about sleeping in a small single bed after a fan commented about the bed sizes.
China's Olympic team arrived in Rio de Janeiro on Thursday ahead of next week's Games. But when members of the table tennis team inspected their bathroom at the Olympic Village, they found that the shower curtain was on the floor. So they installed it themselves - but it fell down repeatedly. The Olympic venues are up and running, but construction of the Olympic Village has proved to be more of a stumbling block. Blocked toilets, leaky pipes and exposed wires are just a few of the problems reported.
