What would you do with this rental kitchen?

What would you do with this rental kitchen?  Tile floor is in good shape, wood cabinets are also not too banged up and mechanically work well.  Laminate countertop is also in good shape for the age with no peeling-could be painted.  Rent pool is college/grad students or young professionals.  No GFCI.  I'm willing to put some money into it but would like to not have to replace everything.  I've painted countertops before and it doesn't last long-but that was just one experience.  I'm thinking of painting the cabinets and tile and perhaps replacing the countertops or just leaving the blue and seeing how it goes.  What do you think? Are blue countertops in again? Any experience putting new countertops on old cabinets? Would you put on cheap laminate or formica or spend a little more for quartz or something more durable?
