Ammario is the ultimate host: present if you want him to be, and generous with his knowledge of the Vancouver experience. The spa was a welcome amenity in the cold Canadian climate. Being on the sky train line made it extremely convenient, although if you're sensitive to noise, be sure to use the earplugs provided. Ammario had everything we needed and is lovely as a person, making us feel truly welcome in his home. I don't think we could have asked for more.
