The first video shared by James focuses on three screens playing the NFL, which span over the room he's staying at. Almost like an apartment, one big TV occupies the main area and a smaller one is located in the kitchen. The kitchen TV is located above some paper towels, water bottles and of course, 18 open bottles of red wine lined up on the floor. A different video of the room was shared later, which shows a sitting living area, featuring the abovementioned TV.

A three-armed chandelier decorates the entrace of the room, probably located at one of the highest floors. The kitchen is connected to the living and dining area, right of which the master bedroom is located. To the left, another smaller room is available, where his family is currently staying.
