I've been trying to place the Room Number for contacts into the work
address for contacts that I am importing.
but I can't seem to figure out where to put the room number, yet still
have the map link to google maps work properly.

I've tried

Room Number
Street Address
City, State, Zip

and

Street Address
Room Number
City, State, Zip

and

Room Number, Street Address
City, State, Zip.

no matter which pattern I use, those google maps links don't work.
If I remove the room number entirely, the google maps links work
peachy!

any tips?

nope, no luck.

4800 E Huron River Drive
Ann Arbor, MI 48105-4800

produces a map correctly.

but this does not:

4800 E Huron River Drive SC203
Ann Arbor, MI 48105-4800

It's that SC part that throws it off. Mine works because it's just a
number.

One workaround I figured out is the following:

4800 E Huron River Drive S.C203
Ann Arbor, MI 48105-4800

It's an ugly hack but works...
