Okay you have a million suggestions already but I wanted to weigh in! I happen to love those floors, but I can see how someone may not. Since you're in a rental, though, they have to stay. You already have some white furniture so I say go for the all white look with pops of color, totally doable on a budget. I am the master at making these curtains, they are so cheap and easy. I've done them for closets and windows.

Easy curtains: Get your white fabric (sometimes a straight sheet is cheaper than going to the fabric store) and cut to fit the space over your closet exactly. Most hardware stores have grommet sets for about $4 and you can pound grommets (metal rings that make holes in the fabric) into the top two corners of your material. Screw in small hook's on either side of the closet. The fabric will hang from those two hooks and you just remove one corner to expose whats inside. What I love about this idea is that you are able to pull the material as tight as you need to create a slick, clean surface. I feel like curtains on rods can seem too 'bunchy' in small spaces.

I hope I explained that well! I also tried to read the other suggestions to avoid being redundant but there were too many. :) Enjoy your charming little space!
