    This hostel, not far away from the airport and the centre of town, has a nice little garden with a lot of flowers. You will also be greated with flowers! And you will get a lot of information during checkin about the island and possible activities. Muchas gracias Ita!

    Hostal Vaihere locates conveniently close to Hanga Roa downtown area which means a big plus for travelers who don't have a car. The hostal appears to be regularly taken care, especially the garden area which make it more appealing. But the outstanding aspect of staying at Hostal Vaihere would have to be Ita, the hostal owner. In addition to his deep local knowledge presented through his strong organization skills which well met our tourist needs, Ita also possesses artistic and creative talents. In other words, we could sense Ita's pride of Rapa Nui heritage in which rituals appear exuberant through his welcoming flower lei and goodbye gift of a seashell and feather necklace as well as his well-shot videos and pictures of the island. We felt deeply touched by his gestures of kindness and genuine care, especially when we got sick. Ita's offering of a fresh bacalhau so that we could make a wonderful consommé to heal from our serious cold is unforgettable. We'd definitely not hesitate in a heart beat to recommend his lodging to friends and anyone else. Thank you, Ita.

    The place could use some updating. Kitchen was pretty sparsely equipped, making it a bit of a challenge to cook meals. Offering a bottled water station would be nice too.

    I'ta, who runs the place , is a great guy. He knows a lot about pretty much everything Rapa Nui. He was always helpful and available to guests to deal with any issue or help make arrangements for tours, rentals, etc. Nice quiet location just a block or two from main street.

    The shower had very weak pressure and could do with an upgrade. The kitchen was lacking good knives for proper cooking but was otherwise good.

    Great location just a block away from the main street, with a lovely host who gave lots of good recommendations. The beds were very comfortable and i slept well there

    On the whole, it is difficult to find a negative point of criticism.

    This accommodation makes you feel welcome and gives you the opportunity to have a good time on this unique island. Very positive is that you get a lot of information about the uniqueness of the island and you get information about tours, language, culture and background.

    Good location but not clean

    The room was absolutely filthy, with black marks on the walls and dusty, sticky table, where you couldn’t possibly leave your stuff; bedsheets completely worn out- had to use my sleeping-bag liner. No towel & no fan as described in the ad. Bathroom & cooking facilities need a very good scrub… No mosquito screen meant that you need to keep windows&doors shut at all times, to protect yourself from dengue fever, which makes it unbearably uncomfortable without a fan… Didn’t see much of the owner tbh, so was a bit disappointed, as that was the reason why I went for this place. We had no hot water for a whole day, but that was fixed the next day.

    Location is very good. About 15 min walk from the airport and 10 min from main road. Warm welcome with a flower wreath & lots of info at check-in. Nice little communal garden.

    Bathroom was very dirty. The room was not very clean neither. They did not even have hand soap in the bathroom. No towels provided but when I asked for one, I was provided with a towel ‘as an exception’. A handsoap and a towel should be a standard min! The small kitchen next to the room was used by hotel workers and they made a lot of noise early in the morning.

    Host was friendly and helpful with sharing local information on arrival. The location is close to the main street and restaurants but it is on a side street with 5 min walking. At night it is quite dark (no street lights) and all streets are full of stray dogs. It makes the walk unpleasant. It has a nice small garden in the front with flowers. With some work, hotel could be much better.
