I perfectly understand your concern, because in a foreign country it is not so easy to figure out directions and generally negotiate with taxi drivers. Now I personally use this convenient service https://atobtransfer.com/greece/rhodes-airport-taxi-transfers/ which allows you to order a taxi to Rhodes airport in advance and travel comfortably to the hotel. Also in this service you can order a car tour of Rhodes to see the city and of course have a comfortable time.
