POTENTIAL FOR NOISE: This industrial experience will NOT be for everyone, especially those looking for total quiet. You will hear the sounds of trains going by, construction forklifts beeping, etc. The factory works through the night. Some nights are more noisy than others, and unfortunately this is out of our control. Sunday nights tend to be the quietest as often the factory is off work!
Our family lives nearby and is not usually bothered by it, but we realize it's not for everyone, particularly if you're a light sleeper. The caboose has sound-proofing and double layers of insulation around the bedroom area, and we provide a white noise machine and portable fan for your added comfort.
*You must be 25 years or older to reserve James Station.
ADDITIONAL GUESTS: If you have more than 3 in your group wanting to stay, we also offer a 1 bedroom apartment AND a separate 5 bedroom home nearby that you may rent in coordination with your stay. Look up our listings (under Amy's profile) "River View Downtown Historic Apartment" or the "Candy Apple."
HOSTED BY: James Station is hosted by All Belong Co, a local small business dedicated to providing 5 star stays. Our team will take good care of you!
SMALL GATHERINGS: Gatherings and small events are considered on a case by case basis and include an event fee. Please message our team & provide as many details as possible.

Summary: We stayed overnight for our son's 6th birthday. The location is so close to everything downtown and what a great novelty place to stay! The bed was super comfortable and the view was great! We wish it had not been so cold the night we stayed because we wanted to check out the firepit! If you are looking for a unique place to stay, this is a great choice!

Summary: The caboose was as described. It was nice and comfortable. There is some noise from the factory below but you could hardly hear it inside. The setting inside was very neat and clean. The neighborhood was ok.

Summary: I was looking for a unique spot for a 2-night stay while transiting through VA and this was perfect! I was working remotely so my main criteria was the Wi-Fi, which was strong and fast (180+ Mbps), and a comfortable place from which to work; I alternated between the window counter and the couch (quite comfortable) and never felt restless. The location makes the place feel pretty private and secluded since it's just the river and factory in front of you. I appreciated the reviewer who suggested binoculars; I really enjoyed watching the factory at work as well as the birds and turkey vultures. During my stay the factory forklifts (which I didn't realize were so big until I saw a regular one pull up next to it!) were quite active 24/7. No factory or train noise bothered me but the beeping from the forklifts did mean I had to sleep with ear plugs; however, the provided ear plugs were comfortable and worked really well! I couldn't even hear the white noise machine after I'd put them in. If you're sensitive to light and like to sleep in late you'll want to bring an eye mask. The kid in me really got a kick out of entering and exiting the caboose through the rear door. The shower was nice and the towels were super soft. I didn't use the kitchen much beyond making oatmeal & coffee but it had everything you might need. Communication with the host was easy and fast. If in the area I'd definitely look at this property again or one of the host's other properties!

Summary: We had a wonderful two night stay at the James. It was spotless and exactly how it was pictured and described. The location is perfect. We walked downtown and to the River Front. We can’t wait to stay again!
