Only a few minutes from the railway station, bus station and Vaparetto stops, but tucked down a quiet alleyway.
The price is good (85 Euros for a single ensuite, 110 for a double) and the rooms, though small, are comfortable and spotless. Recommended for those on a budget who want a no-frills but pleasant place to stay in Venice.
I booked through www.venere.com but other agencies list the hotel as well.
Cannaregio 219 - Calle Gioacchina, Lista di Spagna, Venezia, Italia 30121. Turn left out of the train station down Lista di Spagna. The hotel is down a small alleyway about 3/4 of the way down.
Mary's is a friendly Czech-run accomodation agency with an office in the streets behind the museum in Wenceslas Square. Their service is quick and efficient (I have always found that they reply within the hour if you email during office hours) and, although they offer the usual hotel booking service, I particularly recommend the apartments which they own and manage. Check out the location of their apartments on Husova - excellent value, right in the middle of the old town, and a place where you can come and go as you please.
