Jamaican athletes arrived in Rio de Janeiro on Thursday, only to discover that their Olympic accommodations looked more like a construction zone than an apartment.
A video obtained by The Jamaica Gleaner shows floors covered in plastic, buckets of paint and tools laying around, and workers tidying electrical wiring in one of the rooms.
"I'm telling you, stuff like this a gwaan - mess, it's just a mess," one athlete says.
