Take a peek inside USA Basketball's luxury cruise ship
Silversea Cruises
The U.S. men's and women's basketball teams will be living in luxury at Rio 2016, foregoing the cramped quarters of the athletes' village in favor of a spacious cruise ship.
The Silversea Silver Cloud, which they'll be calling home for the next two weeks, weighs over 16,000 tons and features a pool deck, lounge areas with a panoramic view, and a fitness center, according to Andrew Joseph of For The Win.
Here's what it looks like inside:

It's certainly a lot more inviting than this:
