It is not that it is some kind of revolutionary work. But it was a simple, straightforward concept and the execution very good. There is not anything for me to judge but the methods and presentation. Should I only include such comments when addressing the editor and be more brief when addressing the authors?

That can work, but you have to judge it.

@riverwastaken "It is not that it is some kind of revolutionary work. But it was a simple, straightforward concept and the execution very good." That should be the core points of your review. Add some reasoning and you have a good review. There are journals where the first point would result in rejection. Take that into account.
