Too really get this, click on the links...
Say you're staying at the Doubletree hotel in downtown boston. You look to see where it is in google maps. Realizing that you are renting a car, but there is no reason to keep it for the next day, you search for Avis locations nearby.
Look at that, there is an Avis location right next to the hotel at 1 Bennet Street! Fantastic! So call up Avis (you're out on a Sunday and you need the car for the next day), get the pickup at Logan, and the drop off at 1 Bennet Street. All set.
Now it turns out that the Charles Hotel at 1 Bennett Street (the hotel with the Avis, and note the extra t) is in Cambridge, not Boston. That's miles away, and not at all useful. There is a 1 Bennet Street in Boston though, right next to the hotel you're staying at. Apparently that and Cambridge being kind of like Boston were enough to confuse google maps, and you.
