Best documentation for the details?
For actual documentation, you probably know the pandocs, but there are a lot of more specific information in the docs linked in their references, especially the cycle-accurate GB docs, the GB complete technical reference by Gekkio. You can also check the source code of the relevant test roms, like the Blarggโs test roms for more general behaviour and the MooneyeGB test suite for more specific things.

Documentation for cycle accurate Game Boy CPU
Gekkio's GB-CTR is a good reference of the SM83 (Gameboy CPU) with access pattern withM cycle accuracy. The GB-research repo by the same author also contains a lot of information.

Best documentation for the details?
The thing about the Game Boy (or most consoles, really, but especially the Game Boy since it uses a custom CPU) is that we don't know all the details. People have had to reverse engineer it to figure stuff out. /u/gekkio is one of the people doing that work, and his technical reference and test suite are the (ongoing) results of that.
