The twist at the end was great; I was waiting for Rarity to show up, but wasn't expecting that at all.

It was decent. The thing with this episode is that it wasn't as ambitious as the rest of season 2, so despite being really well polished and not having any flaws like rowan mentioned, people are still kinda disappointed. I liked it though, it's always good to have solid, down-to-earth episodes as well. The same thing happens with Community.
This sounds right on paper.
On the one hand, the sleepover episode is one of my favourites from season 1. I'd be curious to watch these two end to end to see whether one of them stands out (since it is a lot of the same characters and similar themes).
On the other hand, I think they need to be careful with switching back and forth. For instance, I love Jane Austen novels, but reading them after reading something intense takes a while to adjust.
In something completely unrelated, it's getting weirder and weirder to me that Rarity represents "generosity". She has some generous moments, sure, but...I mean, if you were to ask me which of the ponies is most generous personality-wise she's behind like...certainly Apple Jack (the pony who just gave her a lesson on generocity) and Fluttershy.
