New flooring- what would you do?

We are renovating a smaller unit that needs new flooring in the bedroom/living room (about 350 square feet of flooring). It currently has carpet. We were tempted to glue down vinyl plank (we had luck with pressure sensitive glue in another rental), but it seems like that will require us to add a subfloor. We don’t have the time or talent for that. We did look into click tile, but a great sales rep talked us out of that. He explained the pad wears out and eventually we will need to replace that, as well. This is an interesting unit. It has a great layout and outdoor space, but it is small is square footage and has a tiny bedroom. It won’t rent for much (maybe $700), so we don’t want to go too crazy with our flooring budget. Thank you!

Click lock vinyl goes down easy over concrete or other material. It is a floating floor....Allure is the brand I believe. Inexpensive and durable.
