First off, I hope you didn't sign a totally lopsided contract. Something that would only protect the landlord would be idiotic to sign. Usually, it's the landlord will ensure hot water, property maintenance, services, both parties will uphold noise curfew between hours of something and blah blah blah.
The laundry thing, I'd definitely bring that up with the landlord. If your landlord can't hold them to it, then we might have problems. But your landlord would be in pretty rough shape anyways if he doesn't have a translator.

Why would they be able to break in? Is your GF just
that paranoid or are your neighbors just
that sketchy? If you're really worried about that, just set up a webcam on your door or something.

If you don't know why landlord made an exception for them, then it's not really yours to question. Maybe they pay him more rent? Maybe a pet fee? Maybe their lease agreement is different. You can't accuse them of breaking the lease agreement just on the assumption that it is the same as yours.
I'd ignore your paranoid girl. Talk to the landlord, and see what he says. Then if you get it through to him that the other tenants are totally bothering you, then maybe we'll be nice and let you out of your lease agreement. He'd have to be a dick not to, and if he was a dick, then I'd escalate it by taking it to the tenancy board.
