Yes, that is correct, Multi-path will defiantly fool you unless you use something like what he mentioned, basically collect observations from several directions, and then perform post processing, delete outliers, averaging, ...etc.

Remember the only thing a "GPS enabled" sniffer/stumbler program does is to
make note of the GPS coordinates of your location at the moment of the
greatest signal strength it has recorded for that access point. That is all
it does. You could be hundreds of feet from the site. There is nothing easy
about it!
Your best bet is multiple passes from different directions until you have it
Bracketed, then average the GPS coordinates. Even then there are so many
variables you will still be down to some serious snooping/educated guessing!
Cheers ... BBR
