I would need to see the document, but my gut feeling is that if you signed it and got the benefit of living there then the lease is going to be binding. The guarantor just protects the landlord in case you skip out without paying rent. If the landlord did not get a guarantor, then its the landlord's problem but it does not mean that the lease is invalid.
