Depends on what you expect from it and your previous exposure to Zelda games.
It has very good dungeons, but with overworld being also very puzzly. It's final distillation of Aonuma's puzzle solving Zeldas and sits on completely opposite side of pendulum swing of Zelda formulas from BotW (with original LoZ being in the middle, being combination of item gated open overworld and dungeons).
Personally, I really like it for what it does good, which are dungeons and puzzle solving, along with great art, but it feels very constrained and linear compared to what I find to be the best balanced Zelda formula, which is original LoZ (or something close to it) - nonetheless, I find it very enjoyable experience, although not the most true (from my POV) to proper Zelda (which honestly none of 3D Zeldas are).
