Paris Olympics: Spot the detail that proves Aussie Olympics stars have been hit with a very annoying problem in the athletes village

An Aussie Olympian has shed more light on the dire conditions in the Olympic Village after athletes locked up communal bikes.

Tennis star Daria Saville, posted a video to social media on Tuesday of her doubles partner Ellen Peres, riding one of the communal bikes without a seat.

The electric bikes were introduced for the athletes staying at the village to get to training areas within 20 minutes of accommodation.

However, athletes soon noticed some of their greedier peers had used bike locks to secure a bike to use whenever they want.    

Others at the village had responded by removing the seats to free the bike from the lock, leaving athletes to ride them while standing. 

'Bikes are meant to be shared here in the village, but some savvy people brought their own bike locks or took the whole bike seat so no one else could use the bikes,' Saville captioned the video on TikTok.

'But man, we were rushing so this had to do.'

The case seems to have been solved however, with a BMX athlete reportedly taking blame for taking off the seats to remove the locks.

Ms Saville's video attracted hundreds of comments from viewers who were shocked to see the state of the village.

'The Olympic Village low key like some broke trade show vibes,' one viewer wrote.

Another added: 'I think they should penalise or give names of the ones that try to lock up public bikes, that's not fair.'

A third wrote: 'That is such poor form.'

A fourth said it was the second video they had seen of athletes complaining about others 'preventing use of bikes'.

One viewer was shocked by the 'lazy' act in an area accommodating the 'greatest athletes in the world'.

Another commented that it was lucky that Peres was a world class athlete.

'Thank God you're an athlete, my legs could never,' they wrote.

Earlier in the week, Saville revealed on social media that the Village is nothing like being in a hotel.

'We don't really have hotel-like housekeeping here in the Olympic Village, so you have to get your own toilet paper,' she captioned a video of herself grabbing several rolls.

It's just the latest hit for the Olympic hosts after Aussie swimmer Ariarne Titmus slammed the 'eco friendly' accommodation arrangements in Paris.

The Olympic Village features polythene mattresses, beds made from cardboard and lackluster food options. 

Titmus didn't hold back when asked if she was disappointed not to break her world record when she claimed back-to-back gold medals in the 400m freestyle on Saturday night, despite smashing the Olympic record.

'It probably wasn't the time I thought I was capable of, but living in the Olympic Village makes it hard to perform,' she admitted in an interview on Sunday.

'It's definitely not made for high performance, so it's about who can really keep it together in the mind.'

There were high hopes that Titmus would also defend her 200m title on Monday but had to settle for silver behind Aussie teammate Mollie O'Callaghan.
