You can still rent an airbnb for a period of over 30 days (so, 31 days) legally with these regulations. Do you find yourself wanting to move around more often than that?
I think this is a pretty good compromise all things considered - I've gotten very tired of people spending 72 hours in the apartment across the hallway from me and generally being nuisances the entire time.
as a tourist that really likes nyc, i can't stay for 30+ days and 15 days at a hotel is too expensive (as in, i can't cook my own meals at a hotel) this affects me a lot. i guess i won't be going back to nyc so soon.
