The host family were very helpful, kind and you could easily feel that they are good people. They're also positive and very lively, just as Brasilians tipically are. Patricia, Leonardo's wife, is very friendly and talkative. If you'd like to practise your Spanish, she's perfect for that. The room was nice and I could use bathroom whenever I needed and the kitchen too. Although the flat's location isn't central it's still very good. You go to the beach, which is within walking distance, through a nice park with lots of fish, turtles and beautiful swans in a big pond (a great attraction to kids!). Generally speaking, I recommend staying at the place.
