We only stayed one night but overall we had a nice time at Donna's place. Donna was very responsive and the check-in process was simple and flexible and her cat, Kailua, was very friendly. We had a car and location was good for us, with easy street parking and Donna also had parking in her driveway available. Though we had a nice stay I felt the house was a bit overpriced as there were cheaper hotels available right along the ocean in Venice Beach, especially for those without a car, as it is at least a few blocks walk to the beach. Also, the bathroom is shared and looked like it was undergoing a bit of renovation, but the room itself was really cute and clean, with a lot of extra little things you might need when staying there for a few nights that other places don't have (hair dryer, lotions, susncreen, etc). Donna also offers bike rentals, which would be very useful for longer stays.
