MedlemHi, i just moved into a new apt, top floor in an old house…but it is an otherwise very nicely renovated place.
Immediatly after moving in i noticed nasty cigarette smoke coming into a corner of the kitchen (!!!)…daily. I know the neighbour downstairs smokes. Smoke and often also smell from cooking comes in at several places in the apt…in one bedroom, in the bathroom, in the kitchen. I told the owners about 10 times now that their is an issue and they keep saying ” we will look what we fan do”… But after 3 weeks no action has been taken. I have history of asthma, pay an enormous rent…for a nasty smoke smelling place. The apt was advertised as non smoking,,,but the landlord told me the house as such is not. There is also a duct tape covered exhaust in the bathroom…when on move in day i asked why that is, the landlord said he cant remember. I have a contract that says i cannot move out for a year…but if it is unliveable for me, surely some danish law must support say that a place must not stink of cigarette smoke and food?!
Please help, this is a huge problem…i had a very expensive move into a very expensive, but super stinky, place! -

ModeratorI am afraid, that you somehow has to live with that. Old houses has many leaks, where smells from the underlying appartments can spread.
Maybe something can be done to get a reduction on the rent, and maybe the clause in your contract that binds you for 1 year is not valid.
I suggest you contact a local tenants association. De adresses under “Lejerforeninger”
Kind regards
