Paint for a small in-law unit (Interior and exterior) in East bay

What paint (primer and finish) would you recommend for a 300 sq ft in-law unit which would be used as a rental for 1-2 adults max. The size of the unit makes me lean towards lighter colors. 

Would be great if you could suggest shades and brands.

Also should I use the same paint for all the interior or have different for bathroom?

Thank you

    I would go with a lighter color. That would give it a visually bigger look. It should also look good with dark cabinets and flooring. I would say a light gray or cream color. I usually buy at Lowe's and go with Valspar Paint+Primer. This kind usually takes two coats in order to look great. Recently, I used Holmes Cream and Oatlands Subtle Taupe if you want exact colors. Good luck and hope it turns out good for you!
