Is it normal to see such locations on google maps?
And if it is normal. what kind of photos can be added?
I guess you understand what’s going on here

What appear on Google Maps, @To_paul , depends of several factors, so it is easier to see what should not be in Google Maps.
We can think that it is inappropriate, I agree, but please check here below:
Places you can’t add to the map is giving us an answer:
Checking the link, you will find: “Adult Entertainment services (if illegal in the country)”.
So the question is: Is this business legal on your country? if so, it can be on the Maps
Regarding your second question, the answer is in Prohibited and Restricted Content , and refer to “all formats, including Reviews, Photos, and Videos”, so generally all the contributions that we can add on a place.
“We don’t allow content that contains sexually explicit material. Also, we absolutely don’t allow content that sexually exploits children or present them in a sexual manner. We will remove this type of content, shut down the account, and send a report to the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children (NCMEC) and law enforcement.”

I have read in Google’s rules that you cannot make locations for online activities.

@ErmesT if I go and cut off the internet connection, all the video chat will fail.

This is a good point, as the customers cannot access the business @To_paul
Yes, I agree with you. It should be flagged as inappropriate to GMB. BTW, it is claimed as a Model Agency, not an online business, even if the name of the place is self explanatory
Non-physical presence
- Call Centers
- Online-only businesses

I think you know well what a modeling agency is.
I also sent a website to make it clear that this is also a plus18
I think you’re guessing what’s going on in that place
That is why I want to clearly establish what you are doing with this kind of locations.
Needless to say, I have reported countless times?

Hi @To_paul
I have a fresh tip for you.
So far I have reported many businesses for wrong listings to GMB.
The form on https://support.google.com/business/contact/business_redressal_form and reporting via Facebook messenger to Google My Business has never worked for me. But last week I tried via Twitter PM to @GoogleMyBiz. And wow they both kindly acknowledged my submission AND they took care of the problem. FANTASTIC.
Hope you can use this tip.
Cheers

I have neither fb nor Twitter nor instagram account, nor do I think I can write their name correctly without looking twice online. I just wanted to discuss the issue here. I’m sure the correct solution will be found.
Thank you for your support and guidance.

Hey guys @To_paul , @MortenCopenhagen , @ErmesT ,
What Ermes said already is totally correct.
After my research looks like this place has physical location and registered at the right address. As long as these are correct this POI can stay on Google Maps as long as it does not violate any rules.
Thanks!

Buna ziua @GeorgesHR
Daca te uiti pe harta acolo o sa vezi un parc acolo ,Parcul Parfumul teilor
Te rog frumos sa muti marcajul la locatie daca zici ca ai verificat si stii unde exista fizic.
O sa atasez un print ,Sa fii atent ca peste strada este si o gradinita de copii.
Multumesc.
