30 Of The Most WTF Situations Tenants Had To Deal With In Their Apartments

I hope you followed this one up with the appropriate authorities.

Someone died in that shower.

Cook it in a stew and give it to your landlord!

I'm pretty sure that no matter what country you are in, you call the local housing authority to report substandard living conditions and you cannot be expected to pay full rent. In fact, I think the landlord may even be responsible for accommodating you somewhere else until the problem is fixed.

That's going to require an entire rehab of the shower cubicle. I would suggest a call to the local housing authority.

Holy rat! And I thought fridge is one of the very few places that is rat proof.

FIGURES

AirBnB would surely refund that, even if the owner didn't want to.

no

I thought I had mice at my old apartment. It turns out it was just a mouse a little baby causing all this damage luckily I was able to back it into a pantry and catch it with a pasta strainer once I released it I never had a problem again for 7 years till I moved out. Well not with mice.

Logic

He seems like a fun guy.

I hope you didn't pay....simple!

I would say naming and feeding them would make them "pets" and those aren't allowed. So the landlord would have to get them out.

That's unfortunate, but often the problem is not known until it's too late.

If your landlord let's himself in without notice, why not just call the police?

Whilst it is pretty crappy, this is likely to be perfectly legal. Someone has to pay for the damage and unless you have insurance, it is unfortunately likely to be you that has to pay.

Exactly what part of the building were you supposed to stay in? Also, cable running through the pool!?!?!?

No.

Get out!

So decorative...🙄

Who calls their Airbnb host for a sponge?

There are Laws for this

Bum pincher!

If this is a property with locking rooms for different tenants, then it is classed as a HMO (House of Multiple Occupancy) and there are a whole raft of additional rules that need to be complied with, especially around fire safety. The door may or may not be compliant, but it will have to have adequate smoke alarms etc.

Landlords who rent to students know that their tenants are almost certainly unaware of the laws that protect tenants. They get away with a lot of illegal stuff that way. (I live in a college town.)

I see Pompey and San Diego have very similar standards.

I had a landlord who hired a service to mow the lawns. The mower threw a rock that shattered our front window and the landlord expected us to pay to replace it.

under a bath with children very much?

the more i see the airbnb logo the more it looks like balls

Well, he is right. The rent doesn't add up.

I would remove the radiators on my way out....

If you were happy with the rent, then it doesn't matter what percentage of the mortgage it was, and it doesn't matter who was paying the balance.

Can we not be reasonable? Let's assume it was a genuine oversight and just ask for a tiny compensation and/or for someone to come clean it. It's not the end of the world if that's the only thing that wasn't cleaned.

Is the second picture of a bent poster in a frame? I could not care less when renting something.
