I’m also using highway=service with service=alley and width for small residential ways in historic centres (mostly small towns and villages, although it is formally allowed to drive there, you’d often have problems by car due to sharp angles and very narrow width, while you can perfectly use them with motorcycles, scooters or sometimes with small cars).

cheers,
