The apartment is really well situated and provides you with everything you could need. Yes, it's a bit of a hike on the way up but the view is totally worth it. I had a great stay here and would recommend it again. The only thing I will note is that the address listed here comes up as an entirely different area about two blocks away on Google Maps. This, combined with the fact that the woman who met me with the key was over an hour late caused some stress upon arrival. I would only recommend that you not use traditional gps maps and just ask someone the location when finding it. I think this is a glitch with the city of Venice being very old and maybe the numbers being hard to sort out, so I can't fault the apartment owner.
