Location cannot be beat, and the palazzo is even more beautiful (and large) than pictured. Comfortable beds, luxurious bathrooms, amazing common spaces. We didn't know what to expect with the maid having access to the apartment, but Pia was charming and discrete -- there when we needed her and vanished when we didn't. Just a note: although there is a lift, there is also a set of stairs to get to the lift. (We hadn't inquired about this, and it worked fine for us, but I thought I would mention it.) It was a memorable holiday!
