Google Maps is an application that is used by over two billion people every month. But as an application that is primarily designed by and for car drivers, it often fails in a human-sized city like Amsterdam.
I can put 2 points 3 feet from each other and it will route them around a 2 mile detour randomly
I had that happen to me with Google Maps walking directions recently. I worked out pretty confidently that the reason was because Google thought it was a one-way path, because the detour would stop happening if I swapped the start and end locations.
