I ran this module (and the rest of the trilogy) recently as standalone adventures. I used both the PDF and the FG module during the game and found that module detail, contents, maps, etc were well setup and helpful for the DM and players. This took about 6 hours for our group to play including all bonus sections.
Overall, this was a pretty good and interesting module. The assassination encounter was good fun and was such that it was easy to modify on the fly if you want to up the challenge some more.
The themed puzzle with the 4 floors was great, only let down by the final exit puzzle. The question posed did not fit the overall theme so it felt very out of place. Unfortunately I can't think of an alternative that would work though.
If you're using this as standalone, one of the rooms can provide information about your "employer" that you could use in something in the future.
The final battle was a nice challenge for my group forcing them to switch up their tactics a bit.
