You wouldn't wish a night in Karasjok on your worst enemy. Unfortunately, the vagaries of the Norway to Finland bus timetables make a stopover in the Same capital inevitable. Karasjok does, however, possess a very interesting Same museum, a shopping centre that would be the envy of, well, every small town in the middle of Lappland (supermarket, police station, video shop) and The World's Worst Youth Hostel.
Pimply Teenager Posing as Management #1: You're in Room 2. The
key's in the door.
Exit H(T) in the general direction of Room 2, which he finds locked with,
much to his surprise, no key in the door.
H(T): Err, it's locked and there's no key in the door.
PTPaM#1: Ah yes. Here's the key.
H(T) goes to Room 2 and drops off his gear before 'enjoying' a refreshing cold shower.
Pimply Teenager Posing as Management #2: Yes, you may borrow a pot, but make sure you wash and dry it before you bring it back. There's washing up liquid and a tea towel in the room.
Seemed fair enough. Of course both of these cleaning accoutrements were figments of PTPaM#2's imagination, assuming she had one.
H(T): why have you unplugged my washing halfway through its cycle?
PTPaM#1: You can't use that electricity - it costs money.
You should have come to Reception and bought a token.
H(T): Grrrrnmmmphh ffffwrrrtttsshhhhplllllng *&@!&%&$%$^!$**(!&^@%!
H(T), probably because of the fluent Same uttered under the guise of good old English expletives, receives a free token and returns to continue his washing.
H(T): There's no remote control for the TV.
PTPaM#2: No, we can't leave them in the rooms in case people steal
them.
H(T): I won't steal it.
PTPaM#2: I'm sorry. If you want to change channels you have to ask
at Reception and we will come to the room and change channel for you.
H(T): Gnnnnaaaaaggghhhhhh, wwwwhhh......
PTPaM#2: And don't forget to clean the room before you leave in the
morning! The mop and broom are in your cupboard.
And on that note, exit Hardy(T) bound for Finland...
