Since it's an apartment, I wouldn't think you're allowed to paint, replace lighting or faucets fixtures unless you remove and replace with original when you leave.

 

The only thing I can think of is a pretty bathmat, shower curtain, nice towels, waste basket and a colorful orchid.

In addition to what @Lucky Charm posted....

 

How about a small floral print or metal art that could be hung on the wall? You can buy pretty holders for those small square tissue boxes. Perhaps a pretty glass container or small basket on the counter for quick access to items they use most? 

 

If you have a Home Goods or At Home store you could go browse for lots of items that might work and add a nice touch to a bathroom.

Re: Suggestions for Bathroom Decorating

- under sink storage - either one or two metal two or three drawer/basket pull out shelf

- on the wall above toilet - either one, two or even three single shelves / with or without   
  shelf baskets 

- perhaps a shelf over the door for extra storage also

 

* take advantage of that tall space under the sink, over the toilet, over the door

  go vertical!!

 

- a wicker toilet tank basket would add storage for a few short stacks of rolls and

   a can of air freshener, using more unused space

 

-  go UP and not OUT, makes the space feel larger


- keep the floors clear of rugs, use a hotel like thick towel bath mat for stepping out

   of the shower, that way it can just be tossed back in the shower for next time


- keep it simple, think clean lines  - everything in its place

Re: Suggestions for Bathroom Decorating

I would add baskets in a variety of sizes for additional storage.  I'd also add a wreath that picks up the colors of the room, not too big or too small.  Assuming it's a small bathroom I'd keep or add a shower curtain with a small print to add warmth.  If space permits I'd add a wall shelf or hanging rack.
