If your Google Maps search in the booking form stops after several attempts, you may have exceeded your daily request quota for the Google Maps API. To resolve this issue:

  1. Check if your project has an active billing account by visiting: http://g.co/dev/maps-no-account
  2. If you didn't set a custom daily request quota, consider adjusting your settings accordingly. For more details on usage limits and the Google Maps JavaScript API services, visit: https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/javascript/usage
