You've used Google Maps' search facility before, I'm assuming?

It has been known to get addresses wrong or fail to find them entirely.
There are also ambiguous addresses where even if it gives you a list
choosing the right one may not be easy. It doesn't show every business
(even bars and restaurants - and I'm not talking about keeping up with
changes) and it gets the type of business wrong. Quickly now, what type
of business is "Herbal Inn"?
