I think I'm happy to call his donk bet on the flop due to how big he made it. I don't want to bloat the pot too much.

Betting turn is good once he checks.

On the river I think I'm calling even for a chop because I don't think he would check AK to you on the turn. He might get tricky and check quads to you but nothing you can do about that really. I would expect to see him turn up with a random Ax played weirdly more than anything else.

I don't like to raise the flop, if we get 3bet I'm not really too happy to play for stacks with AQ in a single raised pot. I think your played the hand perfect, really hard to put them on a hand with their river donk, nothing makes sense for value but I do expect to see mussed draws like QJ JT and the like.

Hand looks good, I'd play every street the same.

I also think you played this hand well. Unless villain is a super loose recreational player I don't think you can really value raise here and you might get yourself in some awkward turn/river spots if you do.
