I was hosting a mini project on google code till a few day back (I
deleted it
as I had not touched it in about 2 months). I am not sure about your
overall criteria but here are some things that I liked about it.

- While the 'issue tracker' is not a full fledged bug tracking
system like bugzilla, I liked it for its responsiveness and
simplicity.
Its trivial to add new categories and stuff.
- Overall responsiveness (svn, wiki etc.) was really good.
- project creation was trivial.
- Viewing of changelogs, diffs etc. are possible via the
web interface
- Good integration - wiki, issue tracker, download area,
links marked 'featured' automatically show up on front
page (same with 'featured' downloads).

I think the focus for google code has been on performance
and ease of use which I liked.

I had also evaluated launchpad with its bzr integration
but as a user I found googlecode easier to use and also
to administer.

One thing to note is that they had a 100MB disk space
quota (which they apparently increase once you file a
ticket - I saw a bunch of such tickets closed in the logs
though I personally didn't hit this limit).

Personally I would vote for googlecode.
