Cleaning floors in a small space

I recently moved into a new apartment and no longer live with my roommate that owns a vacume. I'm trying to figure out how to keep the floors clean in my new, small, one bedroom place. I have found a broom and dustpan just doesn't seem to do the trick.

What do others use on small places? I have seen that swiffer has a mixture of a swiffer and a vacume. Does anyone have it? I like the idea of something small and easy. I could always ask for a vacume for Christmas, but thought I should get some other views.

dry swiffer and then a wet swiffer...dry swiffer every 4-7 days and then wet swiffer every 8 to 14 days....depending on your preference

When I was single, I found this worked very well....
They didn't call it a Swiffer,
They called it a Hummer

The aprtment must have been very dirty cuz I needed servicing weekly!!
