How to suggest wrong directions on Google Maps

Hey @MortenSI . thank you for your answer.
and in which topic label do create a post if i want to bring up a problem with the route Google Maps recommends for specific location?
the text I want to write in the post is this one:
Hello.
I was contacted by the owner of the pension Éva Rusztik (Strada Valea Gârbăului, Cluj, Romania) he told me that he lost a client because the directions provided by google maps were wrong, showing a very long and complicated route.If the customer comes from the Roata restaurant area, on Drumul Sfântul Ioan (it is a street name), he is indicated to come on a long and complicated road, as you can see here: https://goo.gl/maps/dycbdxE586o1JzNe7
The logical and quick way to reach the pension from that area is: https://goo.gl/maps/KcCQeYr6entwP2za6
I want to mention that the access to the pension is very good if the client comes from Oradea (as seen: https://goo.gl/maps/DPrJPzZ4NpY7wxqU8). How can we suggest a change in google maps settings?

and to answer your question, I do not mind, it was actually very simple.
step 1. search in google for: google guides forum
step 2. click the first link (https://www.localguidesconnect.com/t5/General-Discussion/Local-Guide-Forum/td-p/217621)
step 3. click on General Discussion
step 4. scroll down to the bottom until you see: Join the conversation Share tips and stories with other Local Guides
and the last step. click on start a post.
