Very good location near Piazza San Marco. Easy to see much of the main island of Venice on foot. Also easy to get by boat to the other islands. Narrow stairs up to the apartment-- best with smaller bags. (Same for location-- you have to walk m/b 10 minutes from the ferry stop (Rialto) to the apartment, over two small bridges, so best only with smaller bags. But doable with medium luggage. But this is Venice. Advantage is this means once you get there you are very close to attractions.) Definitely recommend staying there.
