I love this part of Santa Monica and Donna's private room is the ideal location to enjoy all of the fun things to do in the city. It is less than 2 blocks from great restaurants and shops, plus good public transportation. It is also within walking distance of the beach. I enjoyed meeting Donna although we spent almost no time together because I was so busy with some family events. Her 2 dogs, Riley and Grace, were amazingly friendly and did not seem to mind my coming and going. The bed was very comfortable and the room private with a small private bath.
