The Finnish ship was the Inha (2733/1899)

That the KTB U16 also provides the information she was the former Spanish MIGUEL confirms your identification as the Finnish INHA.
No wonder we didn't find anything when just looking for a vessel named IHNA as she's called in the KTB...

This same record 21004 also mentions U16 controlling a Dänish vessel named ROSENBORG with a question mark.

The KTB U16 in fact gives her name as ROSENBURG, but we found no Dänish vessel with that name.
The KTB also writes "Nach Kontrolle Schiffsjournal mit Eintragung Prisenkommando eines
Torpedobootes, Oblt.z.S.Zimmermann" but this did not help us to find a Dänish ROSENBURG.

In Gröner 2 vessels named ROSENBORG are listed, but neither is Dänish.
"The world's merchant fleets" by R.Jordan identifies a Dänish ROSENBORG, built 1915, 1997T of Hansen C.K. Copenhagen, A/S D/S Dannebrog.
We assume it was this vessel that U16 controlled: she's a Däne and her name closely matches the name given in the KTB. Because it is an assumption, there is the question mark in the record.

Should you have other thoughts about this ROSENBURG/ROSENBORG, we would be delighted to hear them.
