Hi.
I just took a quick look, and unless i am wrong geocoding use maps api location types, and what you are referring to is for place searches and additions. A while ago I noticed that the support is different for the two api, or Google documentation is a bit confusing.

If you can try post your request data, i can try reproduce your case.

hi, thanks for the quick answer.
The request url is: https://maps.google.com/maps/api/geocode/json?key=AIza...&language=hu&address=Budapest%20karin&region=hu

The response is:

{
   "results" : [
      {
         "address_components" : [
            {
               "long_name" : "75",
               "short_name" : "75",
               "types" : [ "street_number" ]
            },
            {
               "long_name" : "Fóti út",
               "short_name" : "Fóti út",
               "types" : [ "route" ]
            },
            {
               "long_name" : "IV. kerület",
               "short_name" : "IV. kerület",
               "types" : [ "political", "sublocality", "sublocality_level_1" ]
            },
            {
               "long_name" : "Budapest",
               "short_name" : "Budapest",
               "types" : [ "locality", "political" ]

               "types" : [ "country", "political" ]
            },
            {
               "long_name" : "1047",
               "short_name" : "1047",
               "types" : [ "postal_code" ]
            }
         ],
         "formatted_address" : "Budapest, Fóti út 75, 1047 Magyarország",
         "geometry" : {
            "location" : {
               "lat" : 47.5775859,
               "lng" : 19.092553
            },
            "location_type" : "ROOFTOP",
            "viewport" : {
               "northeast" : {
                  "lat" : 47.5789348802915,
                  "lng" : 19.0939019802915
               },
               "southwest" : {
                  "lat" : 47.5762369197085,
                  "lng" : 19.0912040197085
               }
            }
         },
         "place_id" : "ChIJSR65OBfaQUcR_GZAMfB2tfQ",
         "types" : [ "establishment", "lodging", "point_of_interest" ]
      }
   ],
   "status" : "OK"
}

where the type is "lodging", which is valid according to the documentation, but lacking in the Enum.
If the seachstring is "Budapest Karinthy", the type "school" comes up.

I've recently encountered the following values: food, department_store, home_goods_store, lodging, university, school, cafe, bar, church, hospital.

Hi
I have made a fix. I will release a Nuget package soon, but you can try the branch if you like.

[kbalint]

thanks! I'll test it and get back to you if needed

[vivet]

Cool.
I did perform some integration tests, and determined that 'unknown' is now returned when no enum value exists for a string location type.
Let me know how it works out.
