Do I owe a reletting fee if I left giving about 2 weeks notice?

I moved out an apartment I was on a month-to-month verbal lease with that was originally a 6 month written lease. There is a re-letting fee (which was left blank on my lease) if I don’t give 30 days notice. There were many maintenance problems, the bathroom backing up every 2-3 months, particle board floor in bathroom that was rotting because of said backups, 3 gas leaks and 8 months without a working heater. On the last gas leak they flagged the entire house saying that it would need to be inspected. I left giving about 2 weeks notice but now my landlord is trying to charge me $730.
