Love it so far; I've reached the stage where I started to feel the boredom in WoD, finished main questlines etc... but I keep opening new quests up with new bits of story to tell. World quests are a lot more interesting in both content and rewards than "fill the bar for a currency that buys junk"; Suramar is so full of detail that I'm still happily exploring it and discovering new things all the time, as indeed I'm doing in every other zone, theyre so full of hidden things to find. Class storylines mean I've already started on an alt to see another chain, even dungeons have been decent so far, in that I'm yet to encounter a group that's made me quit them for the next year or so, as usually happens within the first 4-5 runs I attempt :-P Granted I've only tried a few due to connection problems (a healer who fails to zone in would not be too popular since people tend to pull before checking everyone's rpesent...) but I've certainly done more than I usually manage. A few annoying things, but so far they don't outweigh the good for me: there's slightly too many quests that involve dungeons, and while I can live with normal dungeons, I object to being asked to go to mythic ones for main storyline quests (not even the side storyline for the mythic-only dungeons in Suramar, but a major artifact-related one has just sent me to Eye of Azshara mythic). Heroic is more than enough; most the people who are into lore and story aren't the high-end content types. Also I really dislike finding myself suddenly in a pvp zone when I am on a pve server for a reason: the static ones are bad enough, but at least you learn where those are; the ffa ones which move depending on the world quests of the day really bug me, they don't even warn you on entering them.
