This is an OK conversion. There isn't anything "wrong" with it. And it may follow the guidelines for conversion just fine. But my view is that it pushes DC's too high in many places (bounded accuracy) and it loses some of the really iconic dangers in favor of more generic and standard 5e things. Examples include the pits using a known 5e poison in place of the saves vs. death and the conversion for green slime. However EVEN with all of these "flaws" the document isn't a bad place to start with for your own conversion. Worth the price to me, but be aware of the bland conversion and be prepared to spice it up a bit. Also be aware you need the original - this is just an add-on. Interestingly enough I have a player who played the Yawning Portal version and he says the conversion that I am playing is not too far from the new version. YMMV.
