OpenStreetMap is amazing. I always use the maps when I want to know details about some place. Much more detailed than Google Maps.
ETA: Especially when you want to go somewhere on foot or by bike, because Google Maps kinda sucks at showing footpaths etc.
I can't stand Google maps now. You have to fight it to show the actual map. The map, too, is now swarmed in Wall-E levels of marketing trash: bubbles, home businesses, auto play review videos, promoted fast food and coffee 8 miles away when I'm in a dense walkable area. The user reviews and navigation are still valuable, but literally every other aspect has went to shit.
