What was wrong with "for profit couchsurfing clone"? That's still a good chunk of airbnb's listings today, and it was a big part of the site in the early years when it was gaining traction.
I used to do couchsurfing and I've used airbnb a lot, and there's a lot of overlap in the experience when renting a room.
(The whole apartment rentals are different of course, which are a unique hybrid, not even really like a hotel. More like short term furnished apartment rentals, of the kind that formerly worked on a monthly basis for corporate travelers)
