This is what I did in a small rental bathroom: maple cabinet from Lowes (a kitchen cabinet, not a vanity - affordable vanities tend to look and feel really cheap), premade granite countertop from Lowes or Home Depot, brushed nickel hardware, oval mirror (no frame) fronting a discrete medicine cabinet, basic white toilet, Home Depot gray/cream tile on shower surround and floor, simple white blind, BM Edgecomb Gray paint with white trim. It looks fresh and lovely.

Espresso and beige sounds fine. The only thing is that a lot of the espresso cabinets are cheap and they chip and scratch easily.

My rental condo has a standard smallish 4-piece bathroom that needs to be redone. It is not an expensive area and I don't want to go overboard for the amount of rent I can collect, but I do want a high-quality pleasant bathroom for my tenants to use. What are your recommendations for the types of materials, color scheme and design? Should I go the safe route of espresso cabinets on beige tile, or should I do something else?
