    Right now it seems that all you want to
    hear is 'it's a great idea!'.

No! If there are counter arguments, I want to hear them!

The more replies I get without counter arguments that convince me, the more I get the feeling this actually might be a good idea. Because if everybody tries to discourage me and all the arguments are just 'feelings' then maybe there are no hard facts that speak against it.

For example you said that you would steal the idea for apartments with long beds. This is an interesting argument. Because it made me compare Google trends for 'hotel with long bed' and 'hotel with view'. I also did that for 'hard floor' and all the other parameters you mentioned. And I saw that the demand for a view is by far the biggest.

    My advice to you: if you ask for an opinion
    you either say 'thank you'.

Thank you!

Ha! We're alike in the sense that the more people tell me it can't be done, the harder I work to prove the opposite. To sum up my counterarguments: I have a feeling the market size isn't goint to be big, and it's going to be pretty hard. And you're right, both arguments are not fact based.

Also: thank you for this reply. I re-read my parent comment and in hindsight I sound rather condescending. Not my intention, and I apologize.

All the best with your 'AirBnB with a view'!

Great! I'm happy I did not completely disgruntle you and you still speak with me. I can be way too undiplomatic at times.

Small market + Hard problem sums up the responses here nicely. I like that! Because I'm not convinced the market is too small. And because I love hard problems!

I wonder what format I should use for my list so I can put it online easily... hmm... It would have to be one list for each city. Maybe I should put it all in one sqlite db and write a script that renders it to static pages, one page for each city?
