The basic service of Google Photos includes unlimited storage, but it's not limited to that. One can upload as many photos as they want in their account. One can edit the images too and then go to the albums tab, where you can project and print an album in several sizes with minimal settings.

However the biggest advantage of Google Photos is that it's a high quality setting and is supported on almost all the web browsers like Internet Explorer, Firefox, Safari and Chrome etc. Also you can use a Google+ account for uploading and sharing your photos.
