Google Maps are pretty barebones, but at the same time reliable for general / basic use. Depends on region, but OSM usually will be more detailed. It is also possible your region has some local provider that is even better.

Google Maps in my region excel only for navigation quality for cars and search for commercial stuff (businesses and shops)
