Just take out your calculator and calculate the equity.

At that level, w/ only that much in your stack, top set and a re-draw to tie the straight I don't think it's bad at all. Also I don't mind the limp-call p/f. You AA isn't a terribly strong one as you have a dangler 7 and 3 hearts. If you were double-suited and the 7 were one of your straight cards I'd probably re-raise pot, but your hand isn't that strong...

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^In total agreement.. Nice catch on the river.

I think the limp/call preflop sucks. Re-raise the pot when it comes back to you. You can probably count on at least two callers in which case the pot will be less than your stack size. Thus, on any relatively safe/favorable flop, the money will be going in. Plus one or two of the players will be all-in or almost all-in which makes it relatively less likely that anyone will try a big bluff to blow you out of the hand. The concept of not revealing your hand is important, of course, but when playing a short stack, getting the money in when you have the best of it is much more so, imo.
