At a glance that looks like exactly what I like, yeah. Object mappers are 100% worth the effort and are often faster than hand translating the objects (because they'll cache and do things that are annoying or error-prone to do by hand) (code generation is nice too, Android has a couple that do that), and plain inline SQL strings with vars are FAR easier to learn and reason about and can take advantage of any database and any feature, including custom ones.
