Answer
hi

Do you want to build a map or just give only text direction between buildings? if only text direction

you need to store all the building in master table, and each building room in different table and location of each room..

if you want to use google maps to help you need to store each room latitiude and longtitude you need to provide these two value from/to location goolge maps will give you direct between these two.

hope it helps and all the best!!
