Accommodation

Decades ago, even a regular freighter had a crew of at least 50-60 crewmembers on board. The introduction of managers, re-organisations, turbo options and bonusses changed all this and reduced this number to 12-14 crew for even the biggest container vessels. The combination of such a small crew and such a high deckcargo has a strange effect on the size of the accommodation. On one side a small accommodation would be sufficient, on the other hand you'll need an awful high accommodation to have a proper view forward over your own deckcargo. I think everybody has a cabin of at least 200 square meter.
