I also forgot to mention that Christian, the proprietor, arranged my auto rental for me. He had a laminated chart of the vehicles and prices.

The next morning, when I woke up, the housecleaning person handed me the keys to the jeep. I drove around all day. Parked a very dirty jeep in front of the hotel and paid for it on check-out.

It was a pretty easy process - and with a little less documentation than I was used to.

Presumably all the hotels can do or you can avail yourself of such a service in town but I really liked how he put it together for me. If that' important to you, it might a criteria as you review hotel options.

He was also incredibly gracious about my lamentable spanish skills. I think he is from the mainland and his wife is Rapa Nui.
