Gender equality to the max, where male and female were assigned the same room because the EO simply took into account the number of athletes, e.g. 5 men and 5 women would get 5 twin rooms (no way double rooms?).
But guess what?
Same room for Japanese coaches and male and female athletes... (I feel better now)

(The organizers initially estimated an attendance of around 15,000 people but ultimately had to accommodate over 17,000. This surplus of 2,000 people was not the result of a natural disaster, but rather a failure in planning. The primary cause was the organizers' decision to cut costs without making adequate preparations. These issues reveal that the organizers prioritized cost-saving and showcasing an eco-friendly model over the athletes' fundamental needs. While the concept of environmental sustainability is certainly worthy of support, it cannot serve as an excuse for arrangements that compromise athletes' sleep, rest, hygiene, and competition readiness.
Japan has long been renowned for efficiency, punctuality, convenient transportation, and meticulous attention to detail.
Precisely for this reason, the chaos preceding the Asian Games dealt a severe blow to Japan’s image as a host, rapidly eroding the trust built up over time. The international community will not forget the absurd incidents—athletes unable to sleep properly, waiting in vain for transport, or being dropped off at the wrong locations—simply because the organizers offered repeated bows of apology.
Furthermore, the Asian Games carry significant diplomatic and political weight. When the South Korean delegation described the container-style accommodation as the "worst"—or even the "worst in history"—the situation transcended mere athlete complaints to become an issue of international reputation and diplomacy. While athletes' grievances might be dismissed as emotional venting, a delegation's public criticism constitutes a formal repudiation of the organizers' competence. If the organizers continue to console themselves with the notion that the facilities were "fully functional," they will only appear to lack the courage to acknowledge the problems at hand.)
