A basic facility. Rooms are interesting, no doir on bedroom. No curtain on glass wall to bathroom means very little privacy. No.curtain was provided but was able to rig up a curtain to provide some privacy. Couch bed one if the most uncomfortable ever slept on.

The beating heart of Saariselkä
I had a great albeit short (one night) stay at the inn and am relieved I chose this spot. It was -30C and right by the bus stop, which was very convenient. There’s also Husky & Co in the same building so I was able to do the snow mobile and husky tours which I would have missed otherwise.
Full moon and clouds so no aurora the night I was there
Inn from the main road
Panimo Pub is part of the inn

Cheap - you almost get what you pay for.
Dingy room, with a very old and tired kettle and no fridge (there was one in the photo). The single beds were very narrow and uncomfortable and the bathroom was very basic. The whole experience felt very “budget”.

Just So Cozy
I was entirely happy with my decision to stay here. The owners/employees at the front desk were incredibly helpful - more than happy to let me check in early, stay a little late, and always ready with directions or recommendations. The attached restaurant has decent prices for the area, and the service is friendly. The Inn is situated centrally near other hotels, shops, tour operators, and restaurants in Saariselka, and about half an hour's walk from Saariselka Ski and Sport. Buildings and rooms are a tiny bit run-down, but warm and comfortable.

Property is very old and overpriced in relation to its condition. During the week of our stay the room has never been cleaned. Breakfast is poor so we had to eat at another place. Beds are very uncomfortable.

It’s a good price for where’s it’s located. Simple and good enough if you need a (warm) roof over your head for one night. But definitely not for the luxury traveler. take note that the beds are very narrow and mattress is thin. But all in all, for the price, it serves its purpose.
