I want to second Judy's recommendation of the Hotel Ala. I stayed there on one of my trips to Venice and like it very much. It is also very convenient to the Santa Maria del Giglio vaporetto stop--just a short walk down a narrow walkway, no bridges to cross with luggage. It is very clost to Piazza San Marco and very convenient for strolling to many interesting areas. Their website is http://www.hotelala.it/
