Casa blu was perfect. Place itself was spacious and extremely clean. Second floor with an elevator right next to our door. Very quite building and neighborhood on the back side of the Vatican walls. Short 12-15 min walk to St Peters square. We tried lots of restaurants in the area in our 5 day stay and one was better than the next. Casa has a full kitchen, washer/dryer, 2 bedrooms with pull out bunks for our kids, balcony and living room with CNN to stay in touch. Carla was a great host. Very responsive and helpful with any questions we had. Some one was there on time for check in/out very easy. A few suggestions use WhatsApp to communicate with Carla. Get an Italian SIM card so you can stay in touch on the streets. We used Viator to book our tickets/tours. You pay a bit extra but worth it to save time with lines. We booked one of the open bus tours and it was very nice. Overall our 5 day stay was extraordinary
