It was fairly well done, though I do think there were a couple of issues I had.
For one thing, those final four Ahsoka episodes felt like the events played out over a number of days. But Episode III felt like it played out over a number of months. After all, Padme wasn't BIG pregnant when she told Anakin she even was. And the story followed her to full term (pretty much).
Also, Maul flat out telling Ahsoka that Anakin is being groomed as Sidious' "secret apprentice", I felt, was a bit much. In Rebels it's clear she has some suspicions about what happened with Anakin, but she is also genuinely surprised/hurt when she learns for sure that Vader IS Anakin. I would think with Maul spelling out so much of Sidious' plan to her, from this vision he apparently had, that she would far too easily be able to put the pieces together (Anakin being so close to Chancellor Palpatine, the public knowledge the Palpatine crowns himself Emperor, the easy connection that the Emperor MUST have been the Sith lord, the Sith Lord has a new enforcer out of nowhere in Vader, etc.)
I dunno. Like I said, it was mostly well done. But part of me kinda liked the idea that she just left Coruscant and faded into the background of the galaxy somewhere, and that's how she survived.
Also, didn't Rebels mention something about Rex and the other clones he was with, voluntarily removing their chips, and that's why they didn't turn on the Jedi, and went into hiding? Coulda sworn I remembered something like that.
