If you are over 6 feet tall you will need to watch your head. It was nice being a short walk to San Marco, and also not too far from the Rialto Bridge. The alleyway the place is on is a main walking area between the two, so there are a lot of people going by the place. Luckily the windows have shutters to help keep the outside noise down, but they also keep the light out to give the place an almost cave like feel. There are lots of shops and restaurants within a short walk, plus a gelato store right across the alley. By the Rialto Bridge is a water bus stop, a place to get a water taxi, and a small grocery store. The location is good, and the place is alright. It did what we needed, but if we visit Venice again I will probably look for some place a little nicer.
