Many thanks to both of you - I ended up taking a room at Hotel La Fenice et Des Artistes on San Marco. My university has reservation and discounted rates through hotels.com so I was able to secure a room there for $75 a night, and it's in a very good location. And they didn't demand that I pay a two-person rate - I gave Dimora Serenissima a look, and that would have ended up making it a couple hundred euros more than the nice hotel room. :-)
