Rental Hallway Rehab - Flooring Opinion needed

[Sean Shirk]

Good Afternoon!

Trying to get opinion of other BP rental property owners on how they would redo the flooring on this C+ class shared hallway. It currently has carpet from 2nd to 3rd stairwell, orange rubber patches and loose cut carpet on 2nd, and rubber feet from 1st to 2nd (see pictures).

An option would be continue similar looking carpet from 2nd to 1st, but I'm concerned about replacement. Another option I thought of was carpet tile on 2nd (flat), keep rubber, and carpet tile bottom flat.

Please let me know what you'd do! Renovation happening within next two weeks.

3rd floor to 2nd

Thanks!
