I will pressure the landlord with infestation, bad smell, and unhygienic issues. I would put together a band of other tenants about it. At first pressure about leaving (threaten the owner) if that person begs you guys to stay then ask for less rent.
do this or take out the hoarder.
either way you will get less ret to pay or get the smelly hoarder out. win/win
