There is error in String b.
Simply replace the code as below, and rerun:
String b = "{" + "\"location\":{" + "\"lat\" : -38.383494," + "\"lng\" : 33.427362" + "}," + "\"accuracy\":50," + "\"name\":\"Frontline house\"," + "\"phone_number\":\"(+91) 983 893 3937\"," + "\"address\" : \"29, side layout, cohen 09\"," + "\"types\": [\"shoe park\",\"shop\"]," + "\"website\" : \""," + "\"language\" : \"French-IN\"" + "}";
