The location of Donna's place is its biggest asset. Whether you want to walk to the boardwalk, Abbott Kinney or the canals, you can get there easily and safely.
There is quite a bit of street noise at night, but that can be expected for the location. The ease of access to all that Venice has to offer exceeds the importance of the street noise in my opinion, but it's worth keeping in mind before you book your stay. I'd also note that the bed is a foam mattress, which I know some people prefer and others do not.
Donna's place was clean. She provided 2-4 body towels and a few hand towels. If you use wash cloths I would suggest bringing your own. She provided extra toliet paper in case a roll ran out. There was also Kleenex in the unit. If you like to have paper towels on hand I would also buy a roll and bring your own. There is also a hair dryer in the bathroom vanity.
We only used the full-size refrigerator in the kitchen, but the kitchen does have everything you would need to heat leftovers or toast a sandwich if you prefer to eat in. She also provided a coffee maker. The stove is not connected as the listing denotes.
Overall, I would recommend my stay at Donna's to others if they would like to enjoy Venice from a central location just a little ways off from the boardwalk itself. It is clean, recently remodeled and it is also very easy to check-in and out of securely.
