It fully depends on how it's done.
If it's done as a time/cost saving measure, I don't like it because it usually shows. It rarely matches with the 2D animation both stylistically and in movement. It looks better in one anime, and worse in another, but I usually prefer 2D either way, especially for things in the foreground. For example, MAPPA's AoT 3D looks pretty good compared to most other anime, but you can still really tell, unless they stop moving. They feel weightless otherwise and move in a way that don't match 2D movements.
If it's done with 3D in mind from the start because it's 3D and not to replace 2D, like Land of the Lustrous, then I think it's great, because then they use the strengths of 3D animation instead of just seeing it as a cheap replacement for handdrawn 2D animation. Land of the Lustrous is still one of the prettiest anime to date in my opinion, because you can tell the studio cared about its 3D.
