I lived in a 300sqft apartment in a bad neighborhood. eight women were raped in my parking lot over the span of a year.
along the baseboard of the entire apartment was cat litter from the previous tenant.
the kitchen was painted flat black. the cabinets, the floor, the ceiling, the sink, the counter tops, the walls, the stove. everything. there was a window but it did nothing.
there was one door in the whole apartment, the front door. no door on the bathroom, no door on the bedroom, hell there wasn't even a wall for the bedroom.
the bathroom was 5' 8" tall. I know this because I'm over 6' tall.
the HVAC system never had a filter in it. I know this because to cool my 300sqft it cost me $700 one month and I thought, "no fucking way!" I pulled the side of the blower off and looked up into the a-coil. it was so matted with hair, fur, dust, dirt, it looked like cardboard. it took me four hours and two bottles of bleach spray to clean it with a toilet brush in 100°+ weather.
so to recap on what I did
now, some of you might say, "you're an idiot because you did all that free work!" and normally you'd be right, but this landlord never answered their phone unless you missed rent.
when I left that fat fuck tried to keep my deposit because I didn't have proof that the carpets were cleaned. Told him they were cleaned, personally by myself with my own equipment. then said there was trash left behind, then explained the furniture left behind was there I moved in. bastard kept half still.
worst apartment I've ever had. I was burned so bad the next place I took pictures of EVERYTHING before a box was moved in. that's a story for another time though.
