Possible illegal terms in rental lease

[Nat C.]

I am on the opposite side of the court with this question. I am asking as a tenant, not a landlord.

I rent an apartment and was on a 6 month lease that just expired. The landlord gave me a new 3 month lease to sign.

They appear to have used a standard residential tenancy lease but have added some funky clauses under additional terms. One of them states-

"Please note that a $250 fee for painting and $100 for cleaning will be automatically deducted from the deposit".

So in other words, even if you leave the apartment immaculately clean and there is no damage to paint on walls, they're still going to nab you for $350.

As a landlord with many properties, I would never put such a thing into a lease and it seems kind of illegal to me. 

Does anyone know?
